Ch 208: Meeting Jane

Old Madam Fu had a nightmare that night.

In the dream, all she could hear was Fu Jinhe’s broken gong-like voice.

Fu Jinhe was facing away from her, constantly moving further away.

“Jinhe!”

Old Madam Fu woke up from the nightmare.

Her forehead was covered in sweat.

She kept looking around.

There was nothing.

She cried again.

The tears of a once powerful woman were almost completely shed in these few days.

Outside the window, Jane, dressed in black, jumped down from the second floor, her figure agile.

But just as she was about to leave, someone called her from behind.

“Jane!”

Jiang Zao knew that Fu Jinhe didn’t want to acknowledge her identity as the Eldest Daughter of the Fu Family, so she called her Jane.

Jane also recognized Jiang Zao’s voice, stopped, and didn’t turn around.

“What is it?”

Jiang Zao looked at the black figure not far away and felt that something was strange.

“Thank you for what happened before.”

Jane didn’t deny it: “I helped the Fu Family, not you.”

The implication was that if you weren’t a member of the Fu Family, I wouldn’t even look at you.

Jiang Zao didn’t mind, after all, that was the truth.

She came out tonight specifically to try her luck, but she didn’t expect to actually see Jane.

“When Mom had the accident tonight, when you rushed over, was the security system already paralyzed?” Jiang Zao asked.

Jane: “Yes.”

Jiang Zao understood, “Thank you for being willing to protect my mother-in-law.”

Jane originally wanted to leave directly, but in the end, she added: “Also, thank you for keeping MOMO.”

If it weren’t for that robot, the situation tonight would have been uncertain.

Jane left. When Jiang Zao returned to her room, Fu Yanci was standing by the window, his gaze fixed on the place where Jiang Zao and Jane had just spoken.

Jiang Zao walked over, “Why don’t you go down and talk to Eldest Sister?”

Fu Yanci shook his head: “She doesn’t want to see me.”

This feeling was very strange. He believed that Eldest Sister wouldn’t hurt him, but he was also sure that Eldest Sister didn’t want to see him.

Jiang Zao gently placed her hand on Fu Yanci’s shoulder, “At the very least, Eldest Sister cares about the Fu Family. Tonight’s events were definitely not a coincidence. He must have sent someone to monitor the house, or he himself has always been there, so he was able to arrive in the first place and save Mom.”

Fu Yanci turned around and hugged Jiang Zao directly.

At this moment, he was surrounded by fragility.

“Wife, I’m sorry, it’s because of me that you were almost hurt.”

It was also thanks to Jiang Zao’s quick thinking that she reacted immediately and asked him: “You suspect him too?”

Fu Yanci held Jiang Zao tightly, resting his chin on her shoulder, “It’s too coincidental, I never believe in coincidences.”

Jiang Zao hugged him back, gently stroking his back: “Don’t be sad, everyone changes. Fortunately, we reacted quickly enough tonight, but we have to be careful in the future.”

Fu Yanci released Jiang Zao, his tone serious: “I don’t want to continue to be passive. Since Jiang Jin Feng, that White-Eyed Wolf, dares to use this kind of trick to plot against us, then don’t blame me for teaching him how to behave.”

Jiang Zao originally wanted to do it herself, but now seeing Fu Yanci’s determined look, she shrugged her shoulders, “Okay, if you need anything, just say it.”

Actually, she was quite surprised.

In her previous life, she never realized that Jiang Jin Feng would be the kind of person who would use any means to achieve his goals.

And what happened today completely refreshed her values.

◈◈◈

It turned out that Jiang Jin Feng, who in her impression was somewhat aloof and slightly talented, could also be so scheming.

“A-Ci, who do you think is behind Jiang Jin Feng in tonight’s incident?”

It was definitely not Jiang Jin Feng’s own will to create such a big commotion at his own celebration banquet; someone must have instructed him.

But who is this person?

Fu Yanci poured two glasses of red wine and gave one to Jiang Zao.

The two sat on the chaise lounge by the window, with the bright moon and starry sky reflected outside the window, the atmosphere was just right, but unfortunately, it was not a good time for flirting.

“From the very beginning of the RV explosion, I felt that someone was watching us in the dark. At first, I suspected my Eldest Sister, but after these few incidents, I feel that Eldest Sister is protecting us. Behind us, there is another net that has been opened, ready to catch us all at any time.”

Fu Yanci hadn’t had this feeling of being evenly matched for a long time.

“He should hate the Fu Family very much, but there are still many things I can’t be sure of. I need a chance to talk to Eldest Sister face to face in detail.”

He sighed: “Unfortunately, Eldest Sister doesn’t want to see me.”

The red wine entered his throat, mellow and lingering, stimulating his taste buds, but it couldn’t bring a good mood.

Jiang Zao thought for a while, “Then why don’t I make an appointment with him, and then wear headphones? You can tell me what questions you want to ask, and I’ll ask them.”

She was a woman of action, and that night she sent an email to Jane using the IP address she found.

The next day at noon, Jiang Zao sat in a private room on the second floor of the Mingxuan Teahouse, watching the drizzling rain outside the window, slowly sipping the warm tea in her cup.

Pedestrians came in twos and threes, and soon, a person holding a black umbrella entered Jiang Zao’s sight.

He’s here.

In less than three minutes, the private room door opened.

Jane was still dressed in black, wearing sunglasses, with neat short hair and a neutral dress, making him look more like a man.

Jiang Zao thought he just wanted to hide his identity.

She stood up, “Thank you for coming, Jane.”

Jane walked to the opposite side of Jiang Zao and sat down. He didn’t take off his sunglasses, wasn’t interested in the overcast rain outside, and didn’t care about the moisture on his body.

“Ask me anything you want.” Jane went straight to the point.

Fu Yanci in the other private room said his question.

Jiang Zao asked: “Did you cause the RV explosion?”

Jane: “No.”

He answered very simply, as if he didn’t care whether Jiang Zao believed it or not.

Jiang Zao asked again: “Are the two accidents at my resort construction site related to you?”

Jane: “The first time was not, the second time, I had someone put the laxative in, who knew that idiot put too much, but I have already punished him.”

Jiang Zao thought for a moment and understood Jane’s intention.

“You specifically wanted us to find Old Zhang and his wife? You knew they were planting opium poppies and killed someone?”

Jane nodded: “The area they plant will become larger and larger, which will affect your resort sooner or later, and Xia Chuwei died there. You and Fu Yanci trust Yan Jin too much, and something will happen sooner or later.”

Fu Yanci in the next room suddenly felt a sense of unwillingness to be reprimanded by his elders.

“Wife, ask him if he knows who is behind Yan Jin?”

Jiang Zao: “Jane, do you know who Yan Jin’s boss is?”

Jane looked up at Jiang Zao for a while and shook his head: “I haven’t seen him, but I believe I will be able to deal with him soon.”

Jiang Zao continued to ask according to Fu Yanci’s meaning: “They seem to hate the Fu Family very much. As far as you know, is there anyone who has such a big feud with the Fu Family?”

Jane put his hand on the table and tapped it lightly for a moment. Jiang Zao saw the winding scars from his fingertips to his wrist.

“My father was very promiscuous when he was young, calling himself a lover, but my mother had a Love Brain and kept tolerating it. Fortunately, the prodigal son returned, and my mother’s efforts were rewarded. I remember when my father broke up with those women, they all threatened that they would never let it go.”
