"Yes," Miss Jia raised the brim of her hat, "I've got a wedding gift for you."
"what gift?"
"What do you want?" Miss Jia asked.
"Evidence that the man plotted to kill my husband."
Miss Jia's eyes narrowed slightly: "To be honest, every time I see him, someone takes him there. I have never seen his true face."
Although she knew that the mysterious man was closely related to Cheng Yiming's injury, that was all she knew.
Yan Yan thought for a moment, "Do you want to meet this mysterious person?"
Miss Jia was shocked: "Do you know who he is?"
Yan Yan specially held a cocktail party at Cheng Yiming's villa, inviting relatives and friends.
It also means praying for Cheng Yiming.
However, the reception time was set for seven o'clock, and there were only five minutes before seven o'clock, so the garden was still empty.
No guests came.
"My wife used unfair means to help Cheng Shen'er compete, and it was exposed. As a result, Cheng Shen'er couldn't even participate in the competition."
"Yes, this matter is not over yet. Anyone from the Cheng family who dares to come will be against Cheng Junlai."
"Don't call me madam yet, Mrs. Bai Yu hasn't agreed to this marriage yet."
"..."
In the huge garden, only a few security guards at the door were talking quietly.
The garden is filled with flowers and decorated with colored lights. Instead of adding to the excitement, it makes the garden even more lonely.
Yan Yan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room and looked out the window quietly. Her expression did not fluctuate and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
"Xiaoyan..." Yan's mother came to her side.
"Mom, you don't need to comfort me, I'm fine." She shook her head gently.
Inviting guests from all over is just a cover-up, as long as the people who are supposed to come come, it will be fine.
The only loss in my heart is for Cheng Yiming.
Cheng Yiming never gave up dragging the Cheng family out of the quagmire, but the Cheng family treated him like this.
"Someone is coming." Dad Yan suddenly said.
The visitor is Miss Jia.
She walked into the garden and was stunned by the silence in front of her.
In the dim light, she saw Yan Yan behind the glass window.
The two people's eyes met, and there was a tacit understanding. There was no need to say hello. Miss Jia came to the dining table, took some food, ate slowly, and waited.
Today's target person has not appeared yet.
"Here comes another one." Half an hour later, a tall figure appeared at the entrance.
A sneer appeared in Yan Yan's eyes, Cheng Haowen, he really dares to come.
"The reception is today, did I remember correctly?" Cheng Haowen said to Yan Yan who came up to her.
Yan Yan raised her eyebrows: "You remember correctly, it was the other Cheng family members who remembered it wrong."
Cheng Haowen sighed: "They should come. After all, my cousin is getting married. It would be nice to add some joy."
Yan Yan's expression added a hint of sadness, "Just saying these words to you, Cheng Yiming will also be happy."
"Come in and sit down." Yan Yan turned around and led Cheng Haowen forward.
Entering the living room, Cheng Haowen looked around the room full of wedding joy, with a sneer in the corner of his eyes.
"any drinks?"
Yan Yan's question brought him back to his senses. He quickly stopped smiling and said, "Coffee, no sugar."
"I heard from Yi Ming, what are you doing now after you returned from studying abroad?" Yan Yan served him coffee.
"I study finance and work as a trader at home."
"You should make a lot of money."
Cheng Haowen curled her lips: "The more you earn, the less you earn, it depends on who you compare with. Compared with my cousin, I'm far behind."
Yan Yan's heart was churning. The assistant was right. It was engraved in his bones that he wanted to compete with Cheng Yiming.
She lowered her eyes with a sad look on her face, "Now your cousin..."
"My cousin has his own destiny," Cheng Haowen comforted, "it's only a matter of time before he wakes up, but cousin, you..."
"how do I?"
"The Cheng family is in disarray right now. Cousin-in-law, you have to protect the family business for me."
He's also spying.
Yan Yan disagreed: "I know nothing except acting. My family fortune does not depend on Cheng Yiming. None of my parents-in-law are vegetarians."
While she was dealing with Cheng Haowen, she secretly paid attention to Miss Jia's movements.
In the garden, it was a bit strangely quiet.
"Don't you know, cousin?" Cheng Haowen looked confused, "My aunt and uncle, your parents-in-law, have already given their shares of the Cheng family to my cousin."
Yan Yan was slightly stunned, she really didn't know about this.
She couldn't say more, lest he pry out more information.
"Even if this is the case, my father-in-law and mother-in-law will not let it go." She tried to keep her face calm.
"Xiaoyan," Yan's mother said at the kitchen door at this time, "I mixed up your father's medicine. Come and take a look."
When Yan Yan came to the kitchen, Yan's mother whispered: "Miss Jia has been waiting for you for a long time."
Yan Yan glanced at her mother appreciatively, her mother's excuse was really good.
Miss Jia stood motionless in the back garden. When she got closer, she could see clearly that her whole body was shaking.
"Miss Jia?!" Yan Yan called softly.
Miss Jia turned around, her face pale.
"What's wrong?"
"Is that person... the mysterious person?" Miss Jia asked tremblingly.
"Did you hear him?"
Miss Jia's bloodless lips trembled, "I know it's him... it must be him. I saw him once a long time ago..."
Her under-month-old child disappeared... That rainy night, when she chased him out, she only saw a blurry figure and a side face...
She will never forget that profile until her death.
The moment I saw Cheng Haowen, the profile that was etched in my mind appeared again.
And it completely coincides.
He took away her child and plunged her into a dark world, then appeared as a savior and asked her to serve him.
Yan Yan was stunned. She didn't expect Cheng Haowen's scheming to be so deep, nor did she expect that Miss Jia had experienced such pain.
She couldn't help but hug Miss Jia tightly. She knew too well the pain of losing a child.
At this moment, they were like two migratory birds hugging each other in the wind to keep warm.
"Let bygones be bygones," Yan Yan comforted Miss Jia, "You should go back to the hotel and have a good rest. I will go find you tomorrow and we will discuss the matter further."
"Let's take a long-term view..." Miss Jia lost her mind, "I'm like this... what else can I discuss..."
"I know that Yi Ming's matter has nothing to do with you," Yan Yan still comforted her, "Sooner or later Cheng Haowen will pay the price for everything he has done. You will still be an actor, and you can find someone who truly loves you.
You can still have another child..."
Miss Jia's eyes were fascinated, imagining the beautiful future described by Yan Yan.
For a moment, she lowered her eyes.
She understood that to achieve all this, the prerequisite was that the culprit be punished.
She nodded, "I'll go back and rest first."
"I'll ask the driver to take you there."
"I can."
Yan Yan watched Miss Jia walk out of the back garden. She was worried and asked an assistant to follow her to ensure that Miss Jia returned to the hotel safely.
Then she returned to the living room.
Dad Yan, who was sitting on the sofa making tea and chatting, winked at her quietly. Cheng Haowen had been sitting here chatting without moving.
Seeing her coming back, Cheng Haowen stood up and said, "Cousin, since there are no guests coming, you should go to bed early and I'll leave first."
"Don't worry," Yan Yan didn't want him to have the chance to run into Miss Jia, "It's rare for you to come over, let's talk again."
She Shiran sat down and said, "I heard that someone is going to pay a high price to buy Cheng Junlai's shares. Do you know who this person is?"
"High price? How high a price?" Cheng Haowen shrugged, "To be honest, the Cheng family's shares are not worth much now, especially my cousin... How can I put it, whoever buys it at a high price will lose."
"How many Cheng family shares do you own?" Yan Yan asked unexpectedly.
Cheng Haowen was slightly stunned: "One percent... this was left to me by my father. When Murong Jue redistributed the shares, he did not take me into consideration."
"In that case, you might as well sell me the Cheng family shares in your hands." Yan Yan said unexpectedly.
Hearing this, Cheng Haowen burst into laughter, "Cousin, who do you think I am? Do I have no feelings for the Cheng family at all?"
He stood up, turned around and went out this time.
"You've been dealing with him for so long without saying a single useful word." Father Yan shook his head.
"Why not?" Yan Yan came to the window and watched his figure go away.
At least, she could see that he was guilty.
She ordered her assistant to investigate the movements of the Cheng family's shares.
The results came out soon. Yan Yan didn't know it until she looked at it. Only after looking at it did she realize how serious the situation was.
To date, 40% of the Cheng family members have sold their shares to a company.
Forty percent of the Cheng family makes this company control nearly 20% of the Cheng family's shares.
It's enough to compete with what Cheng Yiming holds.
"Madam, the situation has not reached its worst yet," the assistant said, "but it has."
"How to say?"
"Cheng Junlai's shares have not been sold yet."
Yan Yan was quite surprised. In this case, whoever can get the shares from Cheng Junlai or Cheng Haowen would be the winner.
"We must ask Cheng Jun to sell the shares to us." The assistant reminded Yan Yan.
Yan Yan nodded, "Tell me, what is Cheng Junlai hesitating about?"
"Miss Shen'er has been blocking him." the assistant replied.
Well done to Shen'er, the previous period of time was not in vain, Yan Yan was busy working on her affairs.
"Shen'er, we can discuss the next plan." A smile appeared on Yan Yan's lips.
She asked Cheng Shen'er to meet in the dance studio. Cheng Shen'er spent all day in the dance studio and would not arouse Cheng Haowen's suspicion.
On the way, she received a call from Miss Jia.
"Miss Jia..."
But I heard Miss Jia's voice coming urgently: "I'm sorry, I can't help you anymore... Go visit my parents instead of me..."
"Miss Jia, Miss Jia..."
"ah……"
The phone is disconnected.
"Miss Jia?!" Yan Yan's heart tightened and she immediately turned around and rushed to the set.
She couldn't care about anything else and called the director while driving, "Where's Miss Jia? Send someone to her room to check, quickly!"
She hurried to the crew hotel and saw that the outside of the hotel was surrounded by a police cordon.
She wanted to rush in, but was blocked by the police, "I'm sorry, we are working on a case now..."
"Officer Bai, Officer Bai!" She saw Bai Tang and shouted loudly.
Bai Tang took her to Miss Jia's room.
A warning cordon was also set up outside the room.
Yan Yan still wanted to go inside, but Bai Tang stretched out her arms to stop her.
