The Billionaire's New Wife in Chief
Chapter 1222 - 599: Jiang Yingjie and Tan Shuya Make the Headlines
Outside the hospital room, a man wearing a hat on purpose stood there, directly capturing the scene of Tan Shuya holding Jiang Yingjie inside the room. After taking the photo, he glanced at it, and a smile instantly appeared on his face as he left the hospital with the camera.
...
Lu Jingchen did not hide from his uncle the fact that Tan Shuya arranged the kidnapping of Xu Qian and Song Qiao. Even if he didn’t speak up, he knew his uncle would be able to find out.
However, regarding Nan Moyan being the one who kidnapped Xu Qian and Song Qiao, Lu Jingchen did not inform his uncle.
After all, if Xu Yan found out that Nan Moyan was behind Xu Qian’s kidnapping, Nan Moyan’s life would undoubtedly become difficult.
Xu Qian’s partiality is known to all as being a complete sister complex, so even if he tried his best to protect Nan Moyan at that time, it wouldn’t be possible to protect him fully. Although Nan Moyan could be considered a direct brother-in-law, he and Song Qiao could hardly preserve themselves.
After Lu Jingchen had just informed Xu Yan that Tan Shuya was behind the kidnapping of Song Qiao and Xu Qian, the entertainment headlines of An City exploded with news about Tan Shuya and Jiang Yingjie being together. A photo showing Tan Shuya hugging Jiang Yingjie’s waist, crying pitifully, while Jiang Yingjie looked down at her was released.
This scene seemed to have a touch of deep affection.
The news also revealed Jiang Yingjie’s identity underneath.
In the Beijing army, the second son of a certain commander, a third-generation of revolutionaries and a second-generation rich, his status and position are extremely high.
Once the news broke out, it instantly caused a sensation in An City, putting Jiang Yingjie and Tan Shuya on the Weibo hot search list.
In the CK Group office, Song Qiao sat beside Lu Jingchen, holding an iPad, swiping through Weibo. Noticing this, she couldn’t help but turn to Lu Jingchen and asked, "Did you hire Jiang Yingjie as the family doctor?"
The man paused while signing the documents, then finished signing his name, set the document aside, and corrected Song Qiao, "Not the family doctor I hired, but the doctor I asked to take care of Tan Shuya."
After all, Tan Shuya suffered such serious injuries because of him back then, and Lu Jingchen couldn’t just leave her alone, could he?
What needs to be done properly still needs to be done.
Song Qiao responded with an "Oh," then continued scrolling through Weibo. When she saw the introduction about Jiang Yingjie’s background, she couldn’t help but joke, "Did you know his family background back then? It looks quite impressive, being a third-generation revolutionary and a second-generation rich. Logically, he shouldn’t lack money. Did you hire him at a high price to take care of Tan Shuya?"
Lu Jingchen took the files that needed processing, flipped them open, and continued browsing quickly. Without raising his head, he explained, "His identity was never a secret; I didn’t ask anyone to investigate it. He voluntarily told me. When I hired him, it wasn’t at a high price. He isn’t short of money — perhaps he simply enjoys the profession of being a doctor..."
Pausing for a moment, he added, "He used to have feelings for Tan Shuya, likely to the point where it developed into love. But who knows about now."
On these matters, Lu Jingchen chose to answer actively, preferring not to wait until Song Qiao started probing herself.
Admitting actively is still better.
Song Qiao’s face was full of shock.
Lu Jingchen continued, "The Tan Family is now far from what it used to be. The elder Tan has an illegitimate son outside, and Tan Shuya has essentially been abandoned by the Tan Family."
After speaking, a few meaningful words carried in his tone, "Perhaps this is karma."
Song Qiao’s face was already full of shock.
Although Tan Shuya arranged for her to be kidnapped, Song Qiao did not harbor intense hostility towards Tan Shuya.
After all... If it weren’t for Tan Shuya, she might never have known that her brother was still alive. Moreover, she wasn’t hurt in the kidnapping incident, so there’s not much hatred in her heart.
In the end, she still feels a bit sorry for Tan Shuya.
She thinks Tan Shuya is somewhat pitiful.
Especially upon hearing Lu Jingchen say that Tan Shuya was abandoned by the Tan Family, she felt even more sorry for Tan Shuya.
...
Jiang Yingjie found out about the news on Weibo hot search concerning him was when he received a call from Beijing in the afternoon.
In an apartment in Beijing, Jiang Yingjie sat on the living room sofa, staring at the news about him on Weibo, his face extremely gloomy as if water would nearly drip from it.
It’s said that media love to seize and exaggerate details just to attract attention. For the first time, with such a thing happening to him, Jiang Yingjie realized how dreadful the media could be.
He couldn’t help but squeeze the phone fiercely, veins bulging on the back of his hand. If it weren’t for the phone’s sturdy quality, it might have been deformed by his grip.
Suddenly, the face of Song Xi appeared in his mind, causing a stark change in his expression. He exited Weibo and directly dialed Song Xi’s number but received a mechanized message that her phone was off.
Glaring at the phone number ahead, Jiang Yingjie hung up and dialed Song Xi’s assistant’s number, receiving the same off message.
Instantly, Jiang Yingjie realized that Song Xi had put him on the blacklist and had her assistant blacklist his number too.
His expression was dark and terrifying, recalling Song Xi’s breakup words last night, even suggesting he and Tan Shuya should be together. Abruptly, he felt anger arise from a realization.
Rising, he grabbed the car keys from the table, headed to the door, and called someone to investigate Song Xi’s whereabouts.
These things, tied to what Song Xi said last night, lead him to believe the news about him and Tan Shuya originated from her...
At H City’s airport, Song Xi sat in the waiting area, scrolling through Weibo with her phone. When she landed on the topic of Jiang Yingjie and Tan Shuya, she clicked on it, feeling a pang in her heart when she saw the news.
Upon directly opening the news, it indicated Jiang Yingjie and Tan Shuya were together, and reportedly Tan Shuya attempted suicide by cutting her wrist last night for unknown reasons. Netizens began wildly speculating.
Song Xi’s grip on the phone tightened, her complexion visibly lost some color.
So, that was why Jiang Yingjie left last night, because Tan Shuya attempted suicide.
——Three more updates still to come.
