Chapter 434: Fire in Paper
Half an hour ago, Yang Wenqi was taking Lu Xinyue and Lu Yiheng's two daughters, Lu Yanxi and Lu Yanzhi, home in the car. The children were chattering and playing in the car, while she deleted all the photos of herself and Lu Yiheng in the camera, took out the memory card in the camera and put it in her bag, ready to destroy it at some time.
She originally thought of destroying the camera as well, but then she changed her mind and thought that if the camera disappeared and she had been to the old lady's house, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
She gave the camera to the driver when she got off the car and said, "The old lady said the camera is broken and asked me to find someone to take a look at it. You can take it to get it fixed later."
"Okay, ma'am." The driver took the camera respectfully.
Yang Wenqi asked two aunts to take care of the children, and then went back to the master bedroom, saying that she wanted to take a rest. She knew very well that it would not be long before the old lady's affairs would be known to others.
It’s not that she wasn’t afraid, but things had developed to this point and she couldn’t help being afraid.
Yang Wenqi sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at herself in the mirror for a long time, and suddenly felt a little strange. When did she become like this? She remembered that she was a poor creature who was forced by her stepmother to marry and just wanted to get rid of the Yang family's use.
It must have been forced by Old Lady Lu, right?
She glanced at the time displayed on her desktop phone again, then looked in the mirror, took off the expensive necklace from her neck and put it back in the jewelry box.
Looking at the cabinet full of jewellery that was worth as much as a villa, she really had no other pursuits. She already had everything she needed, so why did those people force her?
The old lady is like that, Lu Xingchen is like that, and Chu Zeyan is like that too. Why can't they just see her live a good life?
She raised her hand again to take off the left earring, then raised her hand to take off the right one. Then her heart skipped a beat, because the pearl pendant on the right earring... was gone!
She suddenly stood up.
Could it have fallen into the old lady's room when he was arguing with her?
Her heart, which had been gradually calming down, was suddenly frightened again because of this small loss. It was impossible, impossible. She was constantly rebuilding her psychological defenses, but suddenly she started searching for the lost earring like crazy, just to prove that it didn't fall on the old lady.
However, no.
Nowhere.
She bit her fingers and walked back and forth in the room, and began to recall the details of the physical contact with the old lady, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not remember where the earring fell.
So is it possible that it didn't fall in the old lady's room?
and……
Yang Wenqi smiled to herself. Why should she scare herself? Even if it fell in the old lady's room, it would be nothing. After all, before she went to visit the old lady today, she had called Lu Dingsheng and said that she would take the children to see their grandmother. In this case, it was normal for things to fall anywhere.
Just like, she took the old lady's camera and gave it to the driver to repair, as if it was a matter of course.
Thinking of this, she suddenly calmed down a lot.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang, and her heart started pounding again. Seeing the caller ID, she immediately picked up the phone.
"Sister Mei, what's the matter?"
Sister Mei's voice was filled with fear. "Second Madam, did you know that something happened to the old lady?"
"Old lady...what happened?" Yang Wenqi said, adding, "Wasn't she fine when I went to see her this morning? What happened to her?"
Sister Mei didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or a sigh of relief after hearing this. "The old lady...she fell off the bed and lost consciousness. She has now been sent to the hospital by Lu Xingchen and Doctor Luo."
She was sent to the hospital? Yang Wenqi said in disbelief, "How could this happen? She drank a lot of the soup you asked me to bring in this morning, and I only left after I saw her fall asleep."
"..." Sister Mei really wanted to breathe a sigh of relief after hearing this, but she kept thinking about the camera in Yang Wenqi's hand, and she felt unspeakable panic in her heart. She was very afraid that the old lady's accident was related to Yang Wenqi, and what was even more frightening was that if this was really related to Yang Wenqi, then Yang Wenqi was really a creepy person.
So, she hesitated for a while, not daring to mention the camera to Yang Wenqi, and said, "Anyway, the person has been sent to the hospital. I'm telling you first so that you can be mentally prepared, because Lu Xingchen has already called Director Lu. You just visited the old lady, and Director Lu might call to ask you."
"If you ask me, I can only tell the truth. You saw it too. When I went to see the old lady, she was still fine."
Her words made Sister Mei's heart skip a beat. She was not there when Yang Wenqi went to the old lady's room. But Yang Wenqi's words were obviously reminding her that they were in the same boat. Sister Mei felt even more uneasy after hearing this. She was afraid of Yang Wenqi, but she was also afraid of the Lu family.
But in the final analysis, she was indeed Yang Wenqi's person, and if this matter was really related to Yang Wenqi, it was because she provided Yang Wenqi with information about the camera.
Sister Mei was at a loss and didn't know how to respond.
Yang Wenqi sighed again, "We are so unlucky. Aunt Chen is not here today, and you are responsible for looking after the old lady. I happened to bring the children to visit the patient at this time. If the people in the Lu family are sensible, it would be fine. If they are making assumptions, we will have a hard time defending ourselves, Sister Mei."
"Uh... yes, yes." Sister Mei agreed.
Yang Wenqi added, "With the old lady's condition, it's possible that she suddenly got sick and fell off the bed. There's nothing we can do about it."
"Yes, yes, it is."
"Sister Mei, you don't have to blame yourself. When other people ask about it, I will naturally speak for you."
"Thank you, thank you, Madam."
"Then I won't tell you anymore. I'll call Brother Sheng."
Lu Dingsheng, who was standing guard outside the ward in the hospital, received a call from Yang Wenqi, who asked worriedly, "Brother Sheng, I heard something happened to mom. How is she now?"
Lu Dingsheng glanced at the emergency room and said, "They are still trying to save him."
Yang Wenqi covered her mouth and almost cried, "How could this happen? I told you this morning that I would take Xinyue and Yanxi back to visit grandma, and mom was fine when we went there. Her health condition has obviously improved in the past few days. How could this happen..."
"I guess he suddenly felt unwell and fell off the bed. He's not in a good condition now."
"Which hospital are you in? I'll go there too."
"It's no use for you to come. I'll call you if there's anything else."
Lu Dingsheng hung up the phone and looked towards the emergency room with a serious expression. Lu Xingchen, who was standing beside him, guessed the other party's identity through his words and asked, "Is this a call from Xinyue's mother?"
Lu Dingsheng glanced at her and nodded. "She asked me this morning if I wanted to go back to see grandma together. I didn't have time, so she took the kids back. She said grandma was fine before she left, and she couldn't believe that something would happen to her."
Lu Xingchen lowered her eyelashes when she heard that. Originally, she planned to give the pearl earrings to Lu Dingsheng and ask him to check it out, but after hearing what he said, she changed her mind and decided to keep the pearl earrings with her for now.
