Chapter 346: 230 Stirring Trouble, Murdering and Even Seeking Heart Execution (3 more) In the private room, the light was dim and warm.

Jiang Jinsang was sitting on one side, dabbing at Tang Wan’s hand with a tissue, wiping away the red wine stains she had gotten on it. He had just walked in and saw her hand red, initially thinking she was bleeding, and was quite frightened.

”...Xiaowu, that’s how things stand, I’ve told you everything I know.”

Xie Jing had just stopped his nosebleed, and his already slightly chubby face was so swollen that it was deformed.

Tang Wan, hearing about the person behind the scenes and learning of his plan, couldn’t help but feel frightened afterward.

”Why did you agree to help?” Jiang Jinsang’s expression was composed as he continued to wipe Tang Wan’s hands.

”He said, once the deed was done, he would give me a sum of money to go abroad, and... he said the materials Shen Zhixian presented at the annual meeting were given to her by you, and it was impossible for me to seek revenge on you, so I could only target Miss Tang...” Xie Jing’s voice got quieter, ”he said, you must like her a lot, ruining her would be better than trying to get back at you directly.”

Jiang Jinsang just smiled, caressing Tang Wan’s hands, holding them in his palm, and gently kneading them.

”What he said isn’t wrong...” his voice was low and magnetic.

”I really like her.”

Tang Wan was still shocked by the truth she had learned when she suddenly heard him say he liked her. She turned to look at him; his gaze was tender, his smile enchanting.

What was he doing saying these things at a time like this?

”Be serious,” Tang Wan chided with her mouth, but her scolding eyes were filled with a softness.

That sight made Jiang Jinsang’s heart go completely soft.

Xie Jing was dumbfounded...

I’m talking here! It’s a matter of life and death, can you two pay attention to me?

”Should we prepare something?” Tang Wan asked quietly.

”No need, since he wants to play, then let him have his way, and we’ll play along...” Jiang Jinsang said with a laugh.

Xie Jing swallowed nervously, ”Xiaowu, I’ve told you everything, please spare me this once and let me go.”

”But you’re the main character, where would you go?”

He was smiling, but Xie Jing was nearly scared to pee...

What exactly did this psychopath want to do to him?

Early the next morning, at the old Tang Family residence

Shen Shuci rose early for her morning exercise and purposely went to check the East Courtyard where Tang Wan was staying. She had left in the evening, and then Jiang Jinsang also ran off; the two of them hadn’t returned all night?

Where had they gone?

She tried calling, but both of their phones were unreachable.

Tang Wan’s workbench wasn’t tidied up, clearly indicating that she had left in a hurry. It didn’t seem like the two were out on a date either.

When Shen Shuci came back from her morning exercise, the old Shen Family matriarch was feeding her pet bird Hua Mei and asked, ”Where have Wanwan and Xiaowu gone? I was about to ask them to come for a meal, but they’re not around.”

”I’m not sure.”

”These two kids, the Jiang family members are coming over today, and soon we have to hurry to the airport to pick up people. Why can’t we find them at a time like this? I called, and there was no answer.”

Shen Shuci smiled and comforted her mother, ”The two of them are sensible, maybe they played too late in the city last night and stayed out. They won’t miss the important affairs.”

”Alright, go change your clothes and come out for breakfast.”

Shen Shuci had just entered the house when the house phone suddenly rang. Nowadays, most people use mobile phones; some families don’t even have landlines. The sudden ring startled Hua Mei, who fluttered her wings and chirped incessantly.

”Hello—” Shen Shuci was closer.

”Hello, is Wanwan at home?”

”Who is this?”

”My name is Chen Zhi, I’m the manager of her studio.” Shen Shuci glanced at the clock on the wall; it was just past 8 o’clock. The call had actually reached the house.

”Do you need something?”

”I urgently need to find her.”

”She’s not here at the moment, but you can tell me, and I’ll let her know later.”

”Well...” Chen Zhi seemed troubled, and sounds of arguing came from his end of the line. Shen Shuci slightly frowned, ”I’m her aunt, you can tell me what’s the matter, perhaps I can help!”

”Someone brought reporters and people from the animal protection association, trying to force their way into the studio!”

Chen Zhi’s voice was urgent.
