Chapter 238: Chapter 112: Who is the Victim?

Qiming, puzzled but swayed by Captain Lei’s stern seriousness, began to doubt his own words.

"Yeah, is there... a problem?"

Captain Lei’s right index finger tapped on the desk.

"Who ordered the succulent grape drink."

"Cui Yi."

Captain Lei suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"How would you know what she bought?"

Qiming straightened up instantly, knowing the security camera footage wasn’t clear enough to make out the specific drink ordered.

"It was the clerk who said it. Although you could order using a phone, that customer specifically called a waiter to order the succulent grape."

"So, you’re saying, Cui Yi did it on purpose."

Captain Lei narrowed his eyes.

"Why? Why would Cui Yi do such a thing?"

Qiming scratched his head, suddenly having an idea.

"To... could it be to deliberately draw attention?"

Captain Lei’s mouth curved slightly, his eyes flickered with excitement.

"For whom?"

Qiming’s eyes widened, finding it all too absurd.

"Wait, wait, wait, Captain, you mean to say, Cui Yi did this for Li Lei to see? Why? Isn’t Cui Yi the victim?"

"That’s just who we thought was the victim."

Captain Lei squinted his eyes, recalling the responses from Li Lei and Cui Yi that night.

Full of loopholes.

Both the time and place of their encounter were dubious.

Which means...

"This so-called stalking case might be more complicated."

Qiming, with much less experience than Captain Lei, felt a bit dazed by this realization.

"Then... if the two of them were... collaborating? What would be their motive?"

Captain Lei picked up a pen, pulled over a notebook, and tapped it a few times.

"Who is the victim?"

"Cui Yi."

"Do you still think it’s Cui Yi? Think again, in this case, who is the victim?"

Qiming blinked.

The case involved only three people: Li Lei, Cui Yi, and...

Ji Sang.

"Ms. Ji?"

Qiming raised his voice, feeling even more ridiculous.

Yet, on reflection, in this case, only Ji Sang was injured, but his investigation into the connection between Li Lei and Ji Sang found absolutely no link.

"No way, Captain?"

Captain Lei snorted coldly.

"Whether it is or not, we’ll know after we ask Li Lei again. We still haven’t identified the man in the black suit, right? If their target is Ji Sang, it’s not impossible."

Things have been relatively quiet in S City for the past decade, unlike before.

He had heard his mentor allude to that.

There are many grudges between wealthy families.

For a moment, both Captain Lei and Qiming looked uneasy.

...

Ji Sang had called Fu Yisi when she set out, originally planning for Fu Yisi to come to the shop to pick her up. However, due to an emergency at the hospital, Fu Yisi couldn’t make it.

Ji Sang decided to go to the hospital and wait for Fu Yisi.

Just so happens, the wounds on her hand had scabbed over, now at the peeling stage, causing her palm to itch, and she intended to ask the nurse if there was anything that could be done about it.

Worried that Fu Yisi would be concerned after being busy, Ji Sang sent him a message on WeChat.

While waiting for her Didi ride, Ji Sang stood by the roadside, arms crossed in front of her chest.

It was getting late, and the night breeze was chilly.

Ji Sang had only put on a long-sleeved shirt when she left the house, which was now a bit cold for the time.

The car took over ten minutes to arrive.

Ji Sang frowned, checked the car make and license plate number on her phone, and confirmed them before getting into the car.

"Please fasten your seatbelt"

Ji Sang lowered her head and fastened her seatbelt, and the driver smiled for a moment.

"Are you heading to City First Hospital?"

"Yes."

According to company policy, during work, drivers should not engage in idle chatter with passengers, yet on this trip, the uncle driver occasionally sought opportunities to talk to Ji Sang.

Ji Sang rarely used the ride-hailing service, and mentally she felt somewhat uncomfortable with the driver’s behavior. Of course, Ji Sang was not someone who could easily chat with strangers.

Most of the journey consisted of the driver talking by himself.

Halfway through, a call from Fu Yisi came in.

"Where are you now?"

Ji Sang glanced outside the window

"It should take another ten minutes to reach the hospital, have you finished your work?"

"Uh-huh, there’s a little thing left, I should be able to settle it before you arrive."

"Hard work, Dr. Fu, you should rest well tomorrow."

It was then that Fu Yisi remembered that he had forgotten about Dean Han’s birthday.

He hurriedly mentioned it, and Ji Sang responded with a laugh.

"I know."

Fu Yisi was stunned for a moment, then he realized.

Right, if Su Ge came back, she would know.

"You finish up first; I’ll come to pick you up very soon."

Fu Yisi chuckled softly

"Alright, then I’ll wait for Mrs. Fu to come pick me up."

After hanging up, Ji Sang looked down at her phone screen.

The wallpaper was of Fu Yisi.

It was the photo she took the first time she photographed Fu Yisi, the one in the bathroom next to the bathtub.

Originally, this photo had been tucked away at the bottom of her album.

It was only by chance that she flipped through the album and set it as her wallpaper.

Yet, up to now, Fu Yisi had not yet discovered it.

Ji Sang’s finger rested on the screen, on the rose at Fu Yisi’s collarbone.

Abstinence.

Charm.

She saw all of this in Fu Yisi.

And only when in front of her, was Fu Yisi like this.

Ji Sang stared at the photo on her phone, lost in a silly grin.

While Ji Sang was looking down at the photo of Fu Yisi, the driver in front suddenly glanced into the rearview mirror.

...

Chang Li’s studio was now almost ready, and work at City First Hospital was gradually being handed over to other doctors.

Of course, lured by Dean Han, Chang Li still had to come to the hospital once a week for consultations.

A knock on the door of Fu Yisi’s office was heard, and without waiting for a response, Chang Li pushed the door and entered.

"Are you still here grinding away?"

Fu Yisi didn’t lift his head but knew the identity of the visitor.

The only one who would walk into his office like this in the hospital was Chang Li.

"What are you doing here so late?"

Fu Yisi raised an eyebrow, the matter was also settled, only waiting for Ji Sang to come pick him up.

So the man’s mood was not bad.

Chang Li noticed this too and became more presumptuous.

With his legs crossed and hands clasped behind his neck.

"I’m doing everything as per your ideas; for now, Ji Sang should not be affected by nightmares, though I haven’t started the hypnotherapy to recover her memory."

"Uh-huh"

Lately, Ji Sang’s sleep quality had indeed improved a lot.

"But it can’t be delayed too long, Ji Sang has a strong desire to regain her memory, Fu Yisi, don’t take my good relationship with you for granted and act without restraint, the patient’s wishes are paramount."

Though Chang Li was saying this with a smile, there was noticeable seriousness in his eyes.

Fu Yisi’s delicate brows twitched, the corners of his mouth taut.

"I understand."
