In the empty and cold senior ward, Guan Hao stood beside the hospital bed with Qu Ranran in his arms.
Qu Ranran looked at the scene in front of her in disbelief——
Qiao Che was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face. He looked like he was asleep, but he was relying on a ventilator to maintain his vital signs.
Qiao Si sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes fixed on Qiao Che on the bed, her blood looked bad.
Qu Ranran covered her mouth and was in a trance, but her thoughts were flowing like a tide.
When she first heard the news about Qiao Che's life and death from Li Renjun, she knew that Qiao Che's situation was not good...
But she never thought that at this moment, Qiao Che would become a vegetable and lie in front of her.
Even though she resented him for approaching her maliciously and hurting her child without any precautions, seeing him like this now made her feel infinite emotions in her heart.
In any case, she was once her most trusted "Dr. Qiao". If the fact became reality, it would be unbearable cruelty.
"The doctor said he might wake up in the next few days, or it might take a few months, or it might take a few years..."
Qu Ranran looked blankly at Qiao Si who was speaking at the moment.
A faint smile appeared on Qiao Si's mouth, but her voice was sad, "I never thought that he would push me away at the last moment..." As she said that, Qiao Si looked down at her belly and stroked it gently.
He choked up and said, "Perhaps he doesn't even know that when he saved me, he also saved his child."
What? The child Qiao Si is carrying is Qiao Che’s?
Qu Ranran's eyes widened in surprise. When Guan Hao explained to her the confrontation between him and Qiao Che, she only knew that Qiao Che was not Qiao Si's biological brother, and Qiao Che helped Qiao Si deal with Guan Hao.
On the one hand, it was because Qiao Che and Qiao Si had a brother-sister relationship for many years, and on the other hand, Qiao Che was M's adopted son, so she had never thought about it in this regard.
Qiao Si stood up slowly and looked at Qu Ranran with slightly dim eyes.
Qu Ranran and Qiao Si looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
Qiao Si looked at Qu Ranran for a second, then turned her eyes to Guan Hao, "I think you must not have told your wife everything yet. If you don't mind, I will tell you... Of course, I am also a little bit
I want to talk to your wife alone."
Guan Hao's eyebrows were drawn together, and his hold on Qu Ranran tightened slightly.
Qiao Si smiled softly, "Don't worry, I will tell the truth... maybe I can also say something nice for you."
Qu Ranran looked confused.
Guan Hao thought quietly for a second, and finally gently let go of Qu Ranran, held her weak shoulders, and said softly, "I'll wait for you outside."
Qu Ranran nodded blankly.
Guan Hao kissed Qu Ranran's forehead and looked at her with infinite affection.
Qu Ranran saw unease and hesitation that he did not often see on Guan Hao's familiar handsome face, but in the end, Guan Hao let go of Qu Ranran and walked out of the ward with unspeakable emotions.
…
After Guan Hao walked out of the ward, Qiao Si smiled lightly at Qu Ranran.
Qu Ranran was a little uncomfortable with it, and her clear eyes were still wary of Qiao Si in the past.
"Miss Qu...oh, no, I should call you Mrs. Guan now..." Qiao Si smiled lightly and spoke slowly.
Qu Ranran looked calm and looked at Qiao Si coldly.
"Congratulations, you finally became Mrs. Guan."
Thinking of Qiao Si's past plots and injuries, Qu Ranran's tone was not friendly, "Just say what you want to say!!"
Qiao Si curled her lips and smiled, "Don't you want to hear me explain to you how Guan Hao and Qiao Che confronted each other all the way?"
Qu Ranran calmly said, "Guan Hao will tell me naturally."
"Do you know why he hesitated to tell you the whole thing?"
Qu Ranran fell silent.
Qiao Si chuckled, "I can tell by the look on your face that you don't know anything..."
Qu Ranran frowned displeasedly, "You know what there is to be proud of?"
Qiao Si smiled and shook her head, "I'm not feeling proud. In fact, I don't have any ill intentions when I talk to you today. I'm just curious about why you didn't come to me when you learned that Guan Hao was taking care of me silently?"
A trace of sadness flashed across Qu Ranran's clear eyes, but she said nothing.
Qiao Si crossed her chest and raised her eyebrows, "Look, this is you, Qu Ranran... indecisive, without confidence, always timid in doing things, afraid of this and that, and insecure, knowing that her husband may care about other things.
Woman, you don’t have the courage to question him. To put it nicely, you are cherishing your relationship with Guan Hao. To put it harshly, people like you will only feel sorry for yourself and shrink away when encountering setbacks...
…It’s really hard for me to understand, how could Guan Hao fall in love with you?”
Qu Ranran looked at Qiao Si closely and bit her lower lip lightly.
Qiao Si snorted, "In terms of personality, I am extreme, but you are not weak. In terms of beauty, I am better than you. You are even mediocre compared to me. In terms of connotation, I may not be able to compare with you, but the most important thing about a woman is not
It has connotation, but it requires a heart that is always thinking about the other half.”
"I don't need you to lecture me."
Joss took a breath and shrugged, "I'm not telling you this to belittle you, I'm just purely jealous...jealous that you are so lucky to have so many outstanding men around you." After saying that, Joss spread her hands.
, lowered his arrogant attitude just now, "Okay, let's get to the point."
Qu Ranran didn't have time to digest what Qiao Si just said to her, Qiao Si had already spoken again, "I'm not used to complicating simple things, so I'll tell you simply..."
"Guan Hao has always had a plan to deal with Qiao Che. Qiao Che is not an easy man. Qiao Che has always known that Guan Hao wants to use the knowledge that several of Qiao Che's companies have connections with certain drug trafficking groups in Yunnan.
evidence to accuse Qiao Che and go to jail, and Qiao Che had already thought of a way to deal with it. In order to prevent Guan Hao from noticing, he deliberately kept his tone and let Guan Hao fall into his scheme step by step. Sure enough, you
Because he went to see Qiao Che and questioned Guan Hao, Guan Hao could no longer hold back and suddenly mentioned the wedding day to implement the plan. Guan Hao's anger played into Qiao Che's hands. He was originally a
He wanted to ruin your wedding with Guan Hao, but Guan Hao chose to implement the plan on the wedding day, which means that as long as Qiao Che can fight back, Guan Hao will definitely let down his wedding with you that day..."
Qu Ranran frowned and said, "Wait a minute, you said Qiao Che was waiting for Guan Hao to implement the plan on the wedding day... How did Qiao Che know that Guan Hao chose to marry me on that day?" To be honest, even her
No one knew that Guan Hao actually arranged the wedding the day before it was announced to the public.
"So you're not stupid, you thought of such a sensitive issue all of a sudden."
"Did someone leak it?"
"yes."
"Ji Lingtian."
"Mr. Ji?"
Qu Ranran shook his head in disbelief. "How is that possible? He never participated in the confrontation between Guan Hao and Qiao Che from beginning to end."
"Then you are thinking wrong. Whether it is Guan Hao's plan or Qiao Che's plan, Ji Lingtian is a very important role."
"you say."
"I have never imagined how Qiao Che learned that Guan Hao had moved the wedding date forward. After all, the people around Guan Hao are all loyal followers who have followed him for many years. It is absolutely impossible for these people to betray him, but Qiao Che never refused.
Are you willing to tell me who this person is... Until the day of the wedding, Guan Hao sent his men to hand over Qiao Che's criminal evidence to the police according to the previous plan. However, what Guan Hao never expected was that after Roye handed over the evidence to the police
On the way to the police, he was intercepted by Ji Lingtian."
Qu Ranran was shocked, "How could Mr. Ji..." Is he Guan Hao's brother?
"Let me first explain to you the reason why Ji Lingtian helped Qiao Che!"
Qu Ranran nodded vigorously.
Qiao Si said, "Do you still remember why Ji Lingtian and Guan Hao have been at odds for so many years?"
"Guan Hao told me that M has the leverage to control Ji Lingtian, and she has been threatening Ji Lingtian to fight Guan Hao."
"Then do you know what M mastered that allowed Ji Lingtian to obey her orders all those years?" Qiao Si asked.
Qu Ranran confided what she knew, "When Mr. Ji was young, he was sentenced to his father because of his parents' divorce, but Guan's father was addicted to his relationship with M and always ignored Mr. Ji. In addition, Mr. Ji was resentful in his heart.
His mother chose his younger brother instead of him, so he left the Guan family alone long before Guan's father died... After leaving the Guan family, Mr. Ji's life was very hard.
One day her mother could regret that she chose Guan Hao instead of him. However, the world is cruel. Although Mr. Ji is very capable, every time he goes to a company for an interview, no company is willing to take him in... until
One day he successfully applied for a job in an industrial company. The boss of this industrial company seemed to see that Mr. Ji had a talent for business, so he took good care of Mr. Ji in everything. Mr. Ji also worked very hard. In just a few months, he was
The junior was promoted to supervisor, and the boss of the company finally recognized Mr. Ji as his godson because he appreciated Mr. Ji's ability. Mr. Ji changed his name to "Ji" after his boss because he resented his parents and was grateful to his boss... Then
At that time, Mr. Ji was not too wary of others. When Boss Ji handed the company over to Mr. Ji and promoted Mr. Ji to the head of the company, Mr. Ji was very ambitious. At this moment, M suddenly appeared.
In front of him... Only after m appeared did Boss Ji know that it turned out that boss Ji was the one who took orders from m, and m was the one who had been helping him behind the scenes."
Qiao Si crossed her chest and said, "Well, keep talking."
"It turns out that when m was with Guan's father, all the money she received from Guan's father was invested in the company that was handed over to Mr. Ji... Mr. Ji slowly changed his view of m and helped to conceal m.
After hearing the news that he was still alive, he began to confide in m, but Mr. Ji didn't know that m had been setting a trap for Mr. Ji... There was a time when Mr. Ji got drunk at a party and had sex with an underage girl in a daze.
, but afterwards the girl accused Mr. Ji - Jian. The matter was finally solved by m, but m got the evidence that Mr. Ji - Jian was an underage girl... Mr. Ji later found out that the girl was m
The arrangement was to get hold of him, and then M used this to threaten Mr. Ji and Guan Hao into becoming enemies... Mr. Ji had been threatened by M for many years. It was not until Mr. Ji cooperated with Guan Hao and successfully defeated M that the evidence was taken again.
Get it and destroy it.”
Qiao Si smiled and said, "But Ji Lingtian didn't know that there was a military advisor behind m. When m impulsively wanted to seek revenge against Guan Hao, Qiao Che, the military advisor behind m, thought that m might fail. Therefore, Qiao Che
Che has already thought of a plan for m..."
Qu Ranran asked anxiously, "What's the next move?"
Qiao Si replied, "Before m showed up with Guan Hao, Qiao Che had already asked m to back up a copy of the evidence of Ji Lingtianqiang-Jiu Younu. Sure enough, m failed, but what Guan Hao destroyed was the backup made by m.
Evidence of guilt."
Qu Ranran was shocked, "Are you the real 'evidence' that has not been destroyed?"
Qiao Si nodded, "To be precise, this evidence is now in Qiao Che's possession."
Qu Ranran shook his head incomprehensibly, "If Qiao Che still has evidence, why didn't he save m, but just watched m go to jail?"
"Because Qiao Che wanted to deal with Guan Hao! After Guan Hao defeated m, he would never have thought that Ji Lingtian's evidence of crime was still in Qiao Che's hands. Qiao Che just wanted to use Ji Lingtian to give Guan Hao a fatal blow one day, and if he saved
M, without Ji Lingtian’s assistance, Qiao Che has no confidence that he can defeat Guan Hao.”
Qu Ranran finally understood, "So, Qiao Che always knew that Guan Hao was secretly collecting evidence of his connection with Yunnan drug dealers, but he never stopped him. He just waited for Guan Hao to implement this plan, and then let him go at the last moment of the plan.
Ji Lingtian came to stop..."
"yes."
Qu Ranran couldn't wait to ask, "What happened next?"
Qiao Si replied, "Guan Hao has been sending people to monitor Qiao Che's every move, but he didn't expect that the person who came to stop his plan was Ji Lingtian, the only one who revealed the time of his plan... Guan Hao's plan failed like this.
"
Qu Ranran couldn't wait to spit out, "But the person who won in the end was Guan Hao?"
"Listen to me first. After Guan Hao's plan failed, Qiao Che called Guan Hao. Qiao Che asked Guan Hao to abandon the wedding with you and divorce you, otherwise Qiao Che would give Ji Lingtian's
The criminal evidence was submitted to the police. Between brother and wife, Qiao Che had to choose only one from Guan Hao... But what Qiao Che never expected was that Ji Lingtian had just finished calling Guan Hao.
Appeared in front of Qiao Che, and the evidence Ji Lingtian held in his hand was not evidence of crimes committed by Qiao Che's company, but the 'criminal evidence' that Ji Lingtian had been threatened by Qiao Che and M..." At this point, Qiao Si
Sighing softly, "I was beside Qiao Che at that time and witnessed the surprise in Qiao Che's eyes. Of course, I still don't understand how Ji Lingtian got the evidence of guilt from Qiao Che. In short, things have come to this
In the end, the situation suddenly reversed. Before Qiao Che had time to figure out the situation, the police came to the door. The police took Qiao Che away on suspicion of money laundering for Yunnan drug trafficking groups through several of Qiao Che's companies.
, and because I was with Qiao Che at the time, I was also taken to the police station to assist in the investigation... But I did not expect that when the police took Qiao Che to the police station, Tang Kai actually found someone to hijack the police car and opened fire on both sides.
I was almost hit by flying bullets. At the critical moment, Qiao Che pushed me away, and he was shot in the head..."
After hearing this, Qu Ranran was stunned for a long time. It took a long time before he answered, "Tang Kai is so impulsive."
Qiao Si sneered, "He was impulsive, but he was also taken advantage of."
"Um?"
Qiao Si narrowed her eyes, "Do you think that after Qiao Che and M did so much harm to the two Guan brothers, the two Guan brothers would take advantage of Qiao Che and let him serve a few years in prison?"
Qu Ranran frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"
"Guan Hao is not a kind person. Tang Kai was not with Qiao Che at that time. He suddenly received a photo of Qiao Che being taken away by the police. Impulsively, he led people to hijack a police car and sent the photo to Tang Kai.
You don’t need to think about it to know that they are either Guan Hao’s people or Ji Lingtian’s people. Guan Hao and Ji Lingtian want the police to deal with Qiao Che in a logical way.”
"According to what you said, Guan Hao's plan was overall smooth, but why did he abandon the wedding and leave on the wedding day?"
"Because after Qiao Che finished the phone call with Guan Hao, Guan Hao received another phone call."
"What phone?"
"The phone number is from M, your mother, who is calling Guan Hao from prison."
Qu Ranran's eyes widened in shock.
Qiao Si continued, "As soon as Guan Hao answered your mother's call, he rushed to the hotel where Qiao Che was staying, trying to stop the plan... But by the time Guan Hao arrived at the scene, Qiao Che had already been seriously injured and entered the hospital.
I also fainted in the hospital... When I woke up, I was already lying in the hospital. I heard that it was Guan Hao who bailed me out and that he transferred me to a better hospital."
"So Qiao Che is now..."
Qiao Si nodded, "He is still under police surveillance, but now he has become a vegetative state. The police allow him to serve outside prison. Of course, he can only serve outside prison because Guan Hao has established a relationship with the police."
Qu Ranran shook his head in confusion and asked, "Why did Guan Hao want to stop the plan after receiving M's call, and why did he do so much for you and Qiao Che afterwards?"
At this moment, Qiao Si took a deep breath and answered, "Because - Qiao Che is Guan Hao's younger brother."
ps: Sigh, I haven’t finished one chapter... Just a reminder, Ran Ran and Qiao Che are not related by blood. You will understand in the next chapter when the secret is revealed.
