Chapter 146 Suspecting a Deliberate Plot
For some reason, a bad feeling welled up in my heart.
"What are you looking at?" Su Zhu walked in, and seeing the documents in her hand, she leaned closer. After reading the contents, she said naturally, "These clauses are almost like those for property transfer."
"It's the property transfer document." Jiang Ruan put it aside and picked up other documents on the table.
The date on each one is July 16th.
These documents are mostly related to property transfers.
She still remembers the day her mother had the accident. She was shopping with her mother and said that she had something to tell her when they got back. But they had just entered the parking lot when the accident happened.
“Su Zhu…” Jiang Ruan felt a little weak all over.
Su Zhu hadn't noticed those details, but seeing that her complexion wasn't good, she asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
"Do you remember the day my mother had the accident, how the car accident happened?" Past memories flooded back into her mind, and Jiang Ruan was somewhat afraid to face her own guess.
If Mom's car accident was intentional, then who was that person?
Jiang Chenren?
Or something else?
"When you went to the parking lot to get your car, someone mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake and hit your mother." Su Zhu still remembered what happened. "What happened?"
Jiang Ruan handed her the date on the property transfer document: "Look at this."
"July 16th," Su Zhu murmured, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, "This date..."
Before she could finish speaking, Su Zhu suddenly realized something. She looked at Jiang Ruan and asked with a hint of seriousness, "Was your mother's accident also on this day?"
Jiang Ruan: "Yes."
Su Zhu immediately guessed her thoughts: "You suspect that this was a deliberate scheme?"
"I hadn't thought about this before I saw this property transfer document." Jiang Ruan was filled with many emotions. "But the date is too coincidental, so I can't help but think about it."
The girl who hit my mother was a new driver. After seeing the accident, she was even more flustered than my mother. She kept apologizing and said that she was too nervous and mistakenly pressed the accelerator instead of the brake.
Her boyfriend was with her, and after seeing that he had hit someone, he kept shirking responsibility and even cursed at the girl.
At that time, she was preoccupied with her mother's condition and focused on calling for emergency help and contacting Huo Zhizhou, so she didn't pay much attention to the details.
Thinking about it now.
If this was a conspiracy, then the person behind it is far too adept at manipulating people's hearts.
In that situation, she had no doubts.
"Should we go find that girl?" Su Zhu tentatively suggested. "You didn't pursue criminal charges against her when she couldn't afford the medical bills, so she should be cooperative."
“If it weren’t for an accident, she wouldn’t have cooperated.” Jiang Ruan’s mood was somewhat heavy.
"It's all just speculation right now, maybe it's just a coincidence." Su Zhu analyzed rationally, "Didn't she stay in the hospital with you and take care of your mother for several months? If it was a plan, she wouldn't have the guts."
This is also where Jiang Ruan hesitated.
Too many places told her it was just an accident; after all, someone with ulterior motives wouldn't have stubbornly stayed to take care of her for months.
She asked her to leave, but she said she couldn't afford to lose money, so she would have to do the work.
She was so sincere.
They were so sincere that they later forgave her for her mistake.
"Ask first," Su Zhu made the decision for her, "so you won't keep overthinking."
Jiang Ruan suppressed her emotions, put the documents on the table together and took them away. She then walked around the study and found that most of them were books she couldn't understand before leaving.
Just as they were about to go to check other rooms, they suddenly bumped into Jiang Chenren at the top of the stairs.
"Isn't it closed?" Jiang Chenren had been waiting outside her apartment complex ever since he left. He said those words because he was certain that Jiang Ruan would come here soon, and it turned out that he was right.
Looking at him, Jiang Ruan suddenly wanted to bluff: "Did you cause my mother's car accident?"
Her father isn't the type to keep secrets; if he really did it, he would definitely slip up.
"You're crazy," Jiang Chenren cursed at her before walking inside.
He searched the study without any restraint.
Seeing this, Su Zhu glanced at Jiang Ruan and asked, "Should we do something about it?"
Jiang Ruan: "Yes."
Su Zhu took out her phone and made a call to the bodyguards who had come with her, her gaze still fixed on Jiang Chenren, who was constantly looking for something: "Come up to the third floor and ask Mr. Jiang to come down. He's in our way."
Bodyguards: "Yes, Miss."
A moment later, four well-trained bodyguards came up and, under Jiang Chenren's questioning gaze, escorted him downstairs.
Realizing that Jiang Ruan and Su Zhu were trying to get rid of him, he immediately lost his temper: "Jiang Ruan! I'm your father! What are you doing?"
Jiang Ruan didn't say anything.
If she had known Jiang Chenren was with her, she wouldn't have come today at all.
"If you don't let me take my things, I'll burn this place down," Jiang Chenren threatened, "so you won't have a single thing!"
“If this place has really been burned down, you are the prime suspect,” Jiang Ruan said rationally. “Su Zhu and her bodyguards are all witnesses.”
Jiang Chenren understood and began to speak, but swallowed the words that were about to come out.
unlucky!
How could I forget about Su Zhu?
After Jiang Chenren's brief farce was over, Jiang Ruan found the girl's contact information on her phone and sent her a message: "Xiao He, are you still in Jingzhou?"
The reply came almost instantly: "No, I'm in Haicheng."
Jiang Ruan was just about to send a message asking why she wasn't in Jingzhou when she received a call from her. Her voice was as gentle as ever: "Sister Jiang Ruan, what can I do for you?"
"Just asking." Jiang Ruan didn't answer directly, "Isn't your home in Jingzhou? Why did you go to Haicheng?"
As a first-tier city, Jingzhou attracts countless migrant workers.
Why is she the complete opposite?
“My husband is from Haicheng,” Xiao He answered naturally. “We moved here together after we got married.”
"I see." Jiang Ruan felt she had overthought things. She replied to messages and made calls instantly, and her words and actions were no different from usual. This was not the reaction of someone who had planned something.
Xiao He asked with concern, "Is there something you need to talk to me about?"
"No, I was just bored and wanted to ask how you've been." Jiang Ruan's tense heart relaxed a little. "It's nothing, you can go back to your work."
"Okay, then feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything. My phone will always be on for you." Xiao He said this before hanging up.
Looking at the turned-off phone screen, Jiang Ruan pinched the bridge of her nose.
She felt she had been too neurotic lately, suspecting past events because of a similar date. If this was indeed a conspiracy, these things would probably have been destroyed long ago.
"Let's go back." Jiang Ruan took the documents and left.
at the same time.
On the other end of the phone.
After ending the call with Jiang Ruan, the gentle Xiao He sent a message: "[Boss, Jiang Ruan seems to be suspicious. She just messaged me asking about my recent situation.]"
