Chapter 294 - The Old Man Would Not Stop You. Instead, He Would Personally Hand You A Gun

Jiang Ruolan bit her lips and asked softly, "Have you found Wei Donghai?"

"We"ve found him. Besides, I"ve sent people to control him from the shadows. Any actions he takes will be informed to me right away."

Xian Zihao closed the files in his hand and gently pulled Jiang Ruolan into his embrace. He gently patted her head. "Don"t be afraid, I won"t let you get hurt again. Wei Donghai and the mastermind behind him will be caught. I am just waiting for them to enter the net. Wei Donghai is my bait. He won"t be a threat to you anymore."

"You mean the person behind him isn"t as simple as Jiang Bingqing?" Jiang Ruolan was surprised.

"Bingqing and Wei Donghai are only in a cooperative relationship, and she cannot interfere with his actions. Behind Wei Donghai"s actions, there is still a bigger conspiracy. However, it is not a big threat. Don"t worry. I won"t let anything happen to you again." Seeing the worry in her eyes, Xian Zihao embraced her tightly, and his tone was filled with comfort and love.

"Go back to my room and relax. We"ll leave at noon." Although not many people pa.s.s by in the corridor, Jiang Ruolan was still very shy. She quickly opened her mouth to ask Xian Zihao to put her down, but when she saw how serious his expression was, it was as if he feared her leg injury would worsen, she couldn"t say a word.

The care and tenderness in his eyes were very obvious. Jiang Ruolan could only awkwardly not look at the two staff members who pa.s.sed by and let him carry her back to their room.

After a moment, Xian Zihao left the room as he had something to take care of. Jiang Ruolan could only sit outside the window and watched the bright and sunny weather while waiting for him. She picked up a pear from the fruit bowl and began to nibble on it.

As she ate, she suddenly thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night.

At the same time, someone knocked on the door. It was a female staff member and the doctor from yesterday. The doctor came in and respectfully said, "Miss Jiang, President Xian asked me to come and check your ankle."

Jiang Ruolan nodded and limped over to the bed.

"The swelling has not completely disappeared. You need to continue pressing it with ice bags." After the doctor checked her feet, he said carefully, "The swelling was very severe last night, and it has disappeared so much. You recover quickly. You need to keep pressing it with an ice bag for another two or three hours, take some medicine, and continue to rest. Your ankle will recover after a week. But you must remember to be careful when walking and not get any more sprain."

"Thank you." Jiang Ruolan took the ice bag and thanked the doctor. She looked up to see the female staff member change two plates of fresh fruit that looked like they had just been taken out of the freezer, then said softly, "Can I ask where the person in charge of your farm, Uncle Huang?"

The staff member was startled and turned to look at her. "Miss Jiang is looking for Uncle Huang? He should be in the orchard now. It"s not convenient for you to go there right now. I"ll go call Uncle Huang for you."

"That"s troublesome." Jiang Ruolan chuckled.

"It"s alright, Uncle Huang likes to walk around. He always says it"s good for the body." The staff smiled and turned to leave.

After the doctor had left, Jiang Ruolan thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night. He said that he had met that girl in G City. She was 99% sure that the girl he was talking about was her mother, Zhou Qingling.

After a while, the staff came back and said apologetically, "Miss Jiang, I"m very sorry. Uncle Huang is not at the orchard today. I just asked around and found out that today is the day Uncle Huang went out to purchase seedlings. He will be back in three or four days."

There was a tinge of disappointment in Jiang Ruolan"s eyes, but she smiled at the staff. "It"s alright. I"m sorry for troubling you."

Since Wan Shoushan already knew Jiang Ruolan"s ident.i.ty, he couldn"t wait for her. After eating breakfast, he immediately went back to the company with Xie Mei.

Since there"s nothing she could do right now, Jiang Ruolan decided to sleep. She was sleeping until noon. When she woke up, she saw Xian Zihao helping her put new ice bags on her feet. Jiang Ruolan was a light sleeper, she can get easily awake.

"You"re awake? Are you still sleepy? Go back to sleep. It"s fine for us to leave at night." Seeing that the swelling on her feet had subsided, Xian Zihao picked up the ointment the doctor had brought and dabbed it on her swollen ankle.

Jiang Ruolan got up, "I"m not going to sleep anymore. My pregnancy symptoms have decreased a little, but I can still feel nauseous and can"t sleep well. I estimate that I will have this kind of reaction up to 5 or 6 months. Let"s go home first. I can continue sleeping in the car."

As she said that, her hand was trying to take the ointment. "I"ll do it myself."

Xian Zihao held her hand and did not let go. He continued to dab the ointment on her patiently. A kind of cold and comfortable feeling seeped into her skin. Jiang Ruolan decided to let him do what he wanted and just sat there, watching him.

"Grandpa should be mad at me." She said suddenly.

Xian Zihao"s hands did not stop and without even raising his eyes, he said lightly, "Why should he be mad at you?"

"I have beaten his grandson in front of him, in fact, I have even caused the Xian Family to lose face." Her face darkened.

Xian Zihao just glanced at her. "The Old Man missed you."

Jiang Ruolan paused, looking at him in disbelief.

Xian Zihao took a simple medical bandage and lightly wrapped it around her ankle twice. After wrapping it up, he wiped the oily medicine off his hand and laughed lightly. "In that case, even if you wanted to shoot me with a gun, the Old Man would not stop you. Instead, he would personally hand you a gun."

"Huh?" Jiang Ruolan looked at him in surprise. "Are you kidding me?"

Xian Zihao smiled but didn"t say anything. He picked up a coat and draped it over her shoulders. "Put it on. We"re going to leave now."

Afterward, Jiang Ruolan finally had the heart to admire the beautiful scenery around Aerial Club after getting on the familiar black Land Rover. When they finally left the place, Xian Zihao first stopped at the Xian"s Division in F City.

He got off the car to take care of some matters. After about ten minutes, he returned and drove her back to the nearby district. When they stopped at the residential complex entrance, Jiang Ruolan unbuckled her seatbelt and looked at him. "How come you know I live here? Was it you that night?"

She thought of that night when Jiang Yijun had rejected someone at the door. At that time, he told her it was a delivery man. Then Jiang Ruolan recalled the moment Xian Zihao thought she had aborted their child. She remembered the black Land Rover was here all night.

Xian Zihao didn"t answer her question. He was just smiling at her. Jiang Ruolan"s heart immediately felt a burst of warmth.

The moment they got off the car and walked to the unit door, Jiang Ruolan saw Yi Meixiu holding Jiang Yijun"s arm and shouting something.

The impatience in Jiang Yijun"s eyes froze when he saw her and Xian Zihao.

"Aiya, Yijun, you intentionally p.i.s.sed me off. I just went to Ruolan"s company to find her, and she"s obviously not there. She must be resting at home, so why didn"t you let me go inside to find her?!" Yi Meixiu was tugging at his arm, shouting non-stop.

When she turned around and saw Jiang Ruolan, she was stunned for a moment before looking at the tall handsome man beside her. Then, she was stunned once again as she looked at the handsome man, then at Jiang Yijun"s face, then back at the handsome man, then back at Jiang Yijun"s face again.

"Hey, Yijun, don"t tell me you and Ruolan have another long-lost brother?"
