44 Was She Cheated into Marriage?

However, she did not expect to see such a scene. Her mind buzzed as she subconsciously thought of a very serious problem—

Was she tricked into marriage?

Jiang Yanshen was a person who did not like to have intimate contact with others. In the past, he had only dared to hold his hand after half a year of gradual progress…

He did not seem to have such scruples with Gu Xici. Moreover… compared to Lu Qinshang, he was indeed closer to Gu Xici.

Gu Xici did not know what they were thinking and said calmly, “Since you’re here, I’ll leave him to you. There are still many things to do in the police station. I’ll go back first.”

Lin Qingqian: “…”

The image of the Empress reprimanding the concubines immediately appeared in her mind.

After Gu Xici and Song Qin left, only the two of them were left in the ward. It was especially quiet and… strange.

Lin Qingqian stood at the door, her clear eyes filled with doubt and the novelty of a new world being opened!

“You plan to stand there forever?” Jiang Yan pursed his thin lips and paused. “I didn’t know Song Qin would look for you.”

However, even if he knew, he would not stop it.

Lin Qingqian walked in and placed the thermos on the bedside table. “I brought some porridge. Do you want to eat it now?”

Jiang Yanshen turned to look at her. “Auntie made it?”

Lin Qingqian looked at him as if to say, “Do you think that’s possible?”

If her Auntie poisoned him with arsenic, everything would be over.

Jiang Yanshen lowered his eyes and rejected her directly. “Not eating.”

Lin Qingqian knew that his taste buds were very picky, and very few things sold outside could enter his mouth. “I made it.”

Jiang Yanshen immediately said, “My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. I’ll feel better after eating some porridge.”

He looked serious, as if that was really the case.

Lin Qingqian could not be bothered to expose him. She went to the small kitchen to get a bowl and spoon, poured the porridge into the bowl, and handed it to him. Then, she went to wash the thermos and fruits.

When she came out, Jiang Yanshen had already finished his porridge. He watched her with his dark eyes as she cleaned up quietly, looking thoughtful.

Lin Qingqian washed the bowl again, cut the fruits, and placed them at the head of his bed. “I’m leaving.”

Jiang Yanshen frowned slightly. “Are you coming back to see me tonight?”

“No.” Lin Qingqian’s answer was very straightforward. “I’m afraid that I won’t be able to help but give you arsenic.”

With that, she carried the thermos and left.

Jiang Yanshen’s deep eyes followed her back as the light in his eyes became dimmer and dimmer. In the end, it was as if the last light in the world had been turned off. It was dark.

He didn’t expect that some things that he didn’t care about in the past could become the sharpest knife in the world that could send him into an abyss of eternal damnation.

After a moment, a weak voice came from the door. “Director Jiang…”

Song Qin looked very careful. As if in the next second, she was about to be sent to the border province in despair. “I, I didn’t know Young Master Gu was here. I just…”

She just wanted to create some opportunities for him and the Madam. Of course, she could also consolidate my position at the same time. This way, Lu Yuanyuan won’t be able to come back in the future. She’ll be Director Jiang’s most trusted subordinate.

Jiang Yanshen’s expression was indifferent as he said calmly, “Go back.”

Song Qin’s eyes lit up. Director Jiang didn’t blame her for acting on her own?

“Then, Director Jiang, rest well.” With that, she turned to leave.

Jiang Yanshen suddenly stopped her and said in a low voice, “Help me make a trip to Jiang City.”

……

Lin Qingqian didn’t go to the hospital to see Jiang Yanshen again, and Song Qin didn’t come over to wail at her door again.

Four days passed peacefully. On Saturday, she went downstairs to throw out the trash and saw a black Cayenne parked at the door. Jiang Yanshen was sitting in the car in a black suit with a notebook on his lap, as if he was dealing with something.

Song Qin stood at the door of the car. When she saw her, she immediately said respectfully, “Madam…”
