1775 Second Uncle Jiang Was Beaten Up and Hospitalized

“She’s fine for now.” Jiang Zongnan walked back to the living room and picked up his coat, then turned to Jiang Yao and said, “I have something to do. Take care of the house.”

Jiang Yao vaguely felt uneasy. He grabbed his wrist and frowned. “Where are you going? I’ll go with you.”

Jiang Zongnan looked at him deeply and pulled his hand away, then said, “I’m just going out for a while. Don’t think too much. Stay at home and take care of your mother.”

Jiang Yao was stunned for a moment. Suddenly, a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. He looked at him with sharp eyes and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Dad, I just heard the person on the other end of the phone mention Qiao Nian’s name. They…”

“This has nothing to do with Nian Nian!” Jiang Zongnan immediately interrupted him sternly. His refined and wise eyes, which had been honed by time, stared at him for a moment before he retracted his gaze and said slowly, “This is our family’s matter, to begin with. It has nothing to do with her. Don’t involve her.”

“But…” Jiang Yao was still a little worried.

“No buts. I’m going out for a while. I’ll call you if there’s any news.” Jiang Zongnan insisted. Then, he took his car keys and walked out.

Jiang Yao had no choice but to watch him disappear from the villa’s entrance.

Soon, the sound of Jiang Zongnan’s car could be heard from outside.

Jiang Yao stood rooted to the ground for a long time. Then, he walked to the second floor and took out his phone. He said to his mother, “Mom, I’ll go upstairs and call Young Master Xu.”

“Go on.”

Tang Wanru’s heart was filled with the good news that Jiang Xianrou was fine for now. She did not pay much attention to him and waved her hand, indicating for him to go up.

Jiang Yao glanced at her before walking to the study on the second floor and calling Xu Jinshen.

Qiao Nian received a call from Qin Si at ten the following day.

She had just woken up and taken a cold shower.

Qiao Nian walked over impatiently, picked up her charging phone, and answered his call.

She heard Qin Si’s anxious voice on the other end of the phone before she could say anything. “Sister Qiao, where are you?”

Qiao Nian’s eyelashes fluttered as she turned down the volume and said calmly, “Rhine.”

Qin Si said without missing a beat, “Change your clothes. I’m coming to pick you up.”

It was rare for him to be so anxious. She couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows and ask, “What’s wrong?”

Qin Si was silent for a moment before he said probingly, “Second Uncle Jiang was beaten up and sent to the hospital. I heard that three of his ribs were broken. Fortunately, the police arrived in time. Otherwise, I don’t know what would have happened to him. It’s said that it was Xu Jishen who called the police. Yesterday, Second Uncle Jiang received a mysterious call and went out alone. Jiang Yao was worried and called Xu Jishen. Xu Jishen used his connections to locate Second Uncle Jiang’s phone. Only then did the police find him in an abandoned factory…

“He was already unconscious when they found him. The police didn’t find any suspicious people around. They might have heard the news and run away in advance.”

Qin Si didn’t expect such a thing to happen in the capital.

The Jiang family was not very impressive in Beijing, but they were at least in the circle.

The circle was the circle because relations.h.i.+ps were complicated. As long as someone could get into the circle, they more or less had some connections.
