Jiang Ruan forced a smile, "What sche are you up to this ti?"
Zhan Qing had a headache, "Mom, at this point, can’t you just talk to properly?"
"What’s there to talk about with you? If you suspect, go investigate, just don’t bother ."
Zhan Qing’s head ached even more, "Forget it, I’ll look into it myself."
After Zhan Qing left, Jiang Ruan’s smile faded.
It’s good that Zhan Qing discovered it, let him investigate; it actually saves her quite a bit of trouble.
She thought for a mont and decided to go out.
——
Chi Yue was playing with the two children in the Siheyuan, while the nanny was cooking in the kitchen.
The mont Jiang Ruan walked in, Chi Yue took a mont to react.
"Mrs. Zhan, what brings you here?"
Jiang Ruan feigned anger, "If a friend hadn’t told yesterday, I wouldn’t have known you were here."
Chi Yue felt a bit embarrassed, "I didn’t tell anyone I was coming here. Fu Rongyin needed to co over to handle so matters, and we’re here with him for a few days. We’ll leave once he’s done."
"Is it that urgent?"
"Yes, the kids have to go to school; we can’t stay."
Jiang Ruan knew they didn’t want to settle here, so she said nothing more.
She noticed Yuanzi in Chi Yue’s arms and couldn’t help but remark, "He looks exactly like Xiao Bai did when he was young. He’ll surely be a handso young man when he grows up."
Chi Yue smiled but didn’t respond.
She guessed the purpose of Jiang Ruan’s visit today, but as long as she didn’t speak up, Jiang Ruan couldn’t do anything.
But as the morning passed, Chi Yue realized she was mistaken. Jiang Ruan didn’t ntion Lin Wanyun at all.
When the children were asleep, Jiang Ruan showed no intention of leaving and continued chatting with Chi Yue about the Zhan Family’s past.
Chi Yue had no choice but to bring up Lin Wanyun herself.
"Mrs. Zhan, I really don’t know Wanyun’s whereabouts. To be honest, one major reason I ca here is because of Wanyun. I wanted to help search for her, but after a few days, I realized it’s more difficult than I thought. Moreover, I found there are three factions other than looking for her."
Jiang Ruan was stunned, "Three factions?"
Chi Yue nodded, "Besides , there’s you and Zhan Qing, and another faction. I’ve already asked Fu Rongyin to investigate, and we should have news soon."
Jiang Ruan didn’t know what to say for a mont.
After thinking about it, she told Chi Yue about the obstacles she and Zhan Qing faced while looking for Lin Wanyun. The two exchanged glances, as if they understood sothing.
After a while, Jiang Ruan sneered, "Seems like I underestimated that woman’s capabilities."
"Mrs. Zhan, I don’t know if I should say this."
"Hmm, go ahead."
"Wanyun is not losing to Chu Shuang; she simply doesn’t want to fight, and Zhan Qing’s attitude is the most important factor here."
Jiang Ruan agreed with her, though feeling quite helpless, "Zhan Qing and Wanyun’s marriage wasn’t what they wanted in the first place, so this situation is not unexpected. But you know, as a parent, you always want to do sothing. Yueyue, if you see her, just ask her what she wants. If she doesn’t want to stay, I won’t force her."
Chi Yue nodded, "If there’s a chance, I will."
Before leaving, Jiang Ruan held her hand, wanting to speak but then saying nothing.
That night, Chi Yue tossed and turned, feeling uncertain for the first ti about hiding things from Jiang Ruan.
But this was Lin Wanyun’s decision, and what she could do was respect her choice.
Unexpectedly, Chi Yue heard the next day that Lin Wanyun had been found, and it was Chu Shuang who found her.
