After leaving Lin Si's office, Ruan Xingwan was pulled to the tea room by Pei Shanshan.
Pei Shanshan said: "I've heard everything about last night. Editor Lin said there was an investigation, so why investigate? How could this happen by such a coincidence? It was 100% Wen Qian's doing. If not, I'll take off my head and give it to her."
Play as a ball!"
Ruan Xingwan chuckled softly: "Don't be so excited. Even if we know that she did it, there is no evidence. If she bites her again, the gain will outweigh the loss."
"Is that all?"
"of course not."
The reason why Ruan Xingwan was so sure that Wen Qian did it was because she had seen Wen Qian throw the necklace customized by Lin Zhiyi into the trash can, and Wen Qian said that the necklace was lost.
Wen Qian would not have missed this detail, but if Ji Huai hadn't come forward last night, she would have been infamous and spurned by others. Sheng Guang would have been unable to protect himself due to various rumors and would have no energy to investigate for her.
Regarding this matter, he would even worry about rumors and draw a clear line with her.
That way, even if Ruan Xingwan knew that the problem was with Wen Qian, no one would believe her words at that time. They would only think that she was slandering others in order to whitewash herself.
Apart from seeing Wen Qian throw the necklace into the trash can, there was no other evidence to support her statement.
It has to be said that although Wen Qian's step is risky, once the plan succeeds, she will win in danger.
What she just said in Lin Si's office was enough to make Wen Qian not dare to act rashly again.
After Pei Shanshan scolded Wen Qian passionately for a while, she added, "But I'm quite curious, who is helping her? How can she be so secretive? She sounds capable."
Ruan Xingwan shook his head.
Pei Shanshan said again: "Why don't you go see Ji Huai and ask for surveillance?
Only by finding the person who helped her will we have evidence."
"Forget it, let's just let nature take its course."
She has caused enough trouble for Ji Huaijian.
Pei Shanshan knew what she was thinking. After sighing, she changed the topic, looked at her belly, and said earnestly: "Baby, your mission in the future is to protect your mother and stop letting her be bullied by bad people.
Especially your bastard father!"
As she said that, she raised her head and looked at Ruan Xingwan: "How long until the baby is born?"
"14 weeks left."
Pei Shanshan calculated the time and his eyes suddenly lit up: "That's only more than three months!"
Ruan Xingwan nodded, the day was getting closer day by day.
But her uneasiness became stronger and stronger.
Ruan Xingwan said: "Shanshan, I want to leave."
Pei Shanshan didn't react for a moment: "Leave?
where to?"
"I don't know either."
Ruan Xingwan looked out the window, "I always feel that if I continue to stay here, whether the child can be born smoothly will be a problem. I am always worried about what I will do if the Zhou family finds out."
Pei Shanshan frowned and said, "But no matter what, Zhou Cishen is the child's father. Does he really not care at all?"
"This child is what I wanted to give birth to. It's not important to him at all. He won't care about it."
"Dog men are too heartless, and they are not afraid of retribution."
Ruan Xingwan looked away and said firmly: "So I must leave and go to a place where neither Zhou Cishen nor the Zhou family can find me."
The opportunity is now in front of her, and she must prepare everything in advance to ensure nothing is missed.
…
Zhou family.
Zhong Xian was drinking afternoon tea in the garden when Zhou Anan walked over and whispered: "Aunt."
Zhong Xian glanced at her and put down the tea cup: "What's the matter?"
Zhou Anan bit her lip: "Auntie must have heard about what happened last night."
Zhong Xian smiled and mocked, what happened at the charity dinner spread throughout Nancheng last night, and the old man was very angry about it.
"I know everything. If you want to say anything, just say it."
Zhou Anan was about to open his mouth, but looked at the servants around him with concern.
Zhong Xian said calmly: "Everyone, please go down."
The servants responded and left one after another.
Zhou Anan whispered: "Aunt, I want Ruan Xingwan to disappear forever. What should I do?"
"Do you just want the baby in her belly to disappear, or do you want them to be together?"
Zhou Anan gritted his teeth: "Together!"
Zhong Xian smiled and said: "An'an, if something happens to such a big person for no reason, it will inevitably make people suspicious. You..."
"That's why I came to find my aunt. I believe my aunt must have a solution.
If my cousin hadn't been protecting her, I would have taken action myself."
"Aren't you afraid that your cousin will find out the truth later and settle the score with you?"
Hearing this, Zhou Anan's eyes were a little flustered, not sure what Zhong Xian meant.
She knew that her aunt disliked Ruan Xingwan as much as she did, so she came to beg her.
Zhong Xian said again: "Well, An'an, I can help you, but I have a condition."
"Wha...what?"
"Go and tell your uncle that Ruan Xingwan is pregnant."
Zhou Anan's expression suddenly became frightened: "No, my cousin said that as long as I tell this matter, he will not let me go."
Zhong Xian's expression returned to coldness: "Since you are so afraid of him, then I can't help you."
"But aunt..."
"An'an, as long as you refuse to admit it, who will know that it was you who said it? No matter how unscrupulous Zhou Cishen is, he can't do anything to you in front of me and your uncle."
Zhou Anan hesitated for a while before saying: "But according to uncle's wishes, he should let Ruan Xingwan give birth to the child. If we do this, aren't we still helping Ruan Xingwan?"
Zhong Xian said: "Your uncle wants her to have a baby, but Zhou Cishen doesn't want a child. What do you think the final result of this matter will be?"
Without waiting for Zhou Anan to think, Zhong Xian continued: "Perhaps Ruan Xingwan and the child in her belly will disappear from this world quietly without you taking action."
Zhou Anan looked a little more frightened: "Will my cousin do this?"
Zhong Xian smiled disdainfully and said, "There is nothing a person like him can't do in order to keep power in his own hands."
Hearing this, Zhou Anan bit her lip and said nothing, but she had an idea in her heart.
Since my cousin is willing to keep the child in Ruan Xingwan's belly until now, it means that the child is most likely his. If this is the case, my cousin can still get rid of the child. She really...
Don't dare to gamble with yourself.
Zhou Anan felt that no matter what happened, she should not tell this matter from her mouth, but she wanted her uncle to know.
After Zhou Anan thought about it in his mind, he had the best candidate.
After returning to the room, she dialed Ji Ran's phone number.
