Chapter 337: Hearing Restored

As Chi Yu said this, the nurse's expression changed noticeably.

Jiang Zhirou, who was standing nearby, also looked ugly upon hearing this.

Xiang Xiaozhong was Xiang Yun's grandfather.

The nurse had just said that her figure was very similar to that of the lady who came two days ago.

The only person whose figure could be this similar to hers was Xiang Yun.

It seemed that Xiang Yun had been to the hospital.

Chi Yu frowned and asked the nurse in front of him, "When did she come?"

Frightened by Chi Yu's attitude, the nurse quickly replied, "Y-yesterday."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou's expression became much more solemn than before. She looked at Chi Yu and said, "It's Xiang Yun. It seems she's been to the hospital."

"She must have learned the news of Xiang Xiaozhong's death."

Jiang Zhirou was seriously analyzing the situation. Back then, the only thing that could restrain Xiang Yun was her only relative, Xiang Xiaozhong.

Now that he was gone, given Xiang Yun's extreme personality, she might do something unpredictable at any time.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhirou and Chi Yu exchanged a knowing look.

Then Chi Yu comforted Jiang Zhirou, "It's okay. Don't worry too much."

...

The two of them went to the underground parking lot.

Jiang Zhirou sat in the passenger seat. Lost in thought about what had just happened, she frowned unconsciously.

Seeing this, Chi Yu's expression also became increasingly solemn.

A person like Xiang Yun, who was ruthless to herself, would only be more ruthless to others.

If she really set Qing Mian as her target, the consequences...

Chi Yu didn't dare to think any further.

Just then, the person in the passenger seat suddenly said, "Xiang Yun's target is me."

Hearing this, Chi Yu was stunned. His hand on the steering wheel tightened unconsciously. Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Zhirou's voice rang out again.

"Xiang Yun was able to cooperate with someone like An Ya and get out unscathed. She must be more complicated than she seems. If she really has her eye on me, it might actually be a good thing."

Hearing Jiang Zhirou's words, Chi Yu suddenly snapped, "Stop talking nonsense!"

After he said this, there was a brief moment of silence in the air...

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Zhirou suddenly said, "Chi Yu... Can you hear me?"

She stared at him in a daze.

Only then did Chi Yu realize the sudden sounds around him.

His attention had always been on "Qing Mian". Her words just now had shocked him too much.

Chi Yu hit the steering wheel hard and pulled the car over to the side of the road. Then he turned to look at the woman in the passenger seat.

"Don't say such things again."

The expression on Chi Yu's face was more serious than Jiang Zhirou had ever seen. The powerful aura he exuded made Jiang Zhirou subconsciously tense up.

Chi Yu was really angry.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became extremely tense.

After an unknown amount of time, Chi Yu suddenly spoke.

"Sorry, I didn't control my emotions just now."

Chi Yu apologized to Jiang Zhirou sitting beside him.

His tone carried a hint of guilt.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou's emotions gradually calmed down. "I shouldn't have said such things just now, either."

Jiang Zhirou thought that Qing Mian would probably never say such things.

For a moment, she felt at a loss. She was worried that Chi Yu would see through her and that she would be sent back to Country A.

After a moment, her eyes lit up. She spoke to Chi Yu in a much gentler tone than before. She still wanted to stick to her idea.

"My words might have been a bit harsh just now, but they do make sense, don't they?"

"Xiang Yun's targeting me might actually be a good thing."

As soon as she said this, Chi Yu was about to speak, but Jiang Zhirou interrupted him.

"Can you listen to me first?"

Hearing Jiang Zhirou's pleading voice, Chi Yu reluctantly shut up.

"Now that we know Xiang Yun has been to the hospital and we suspect that her target is most likely me, we actually have the upper hand. We can make preparations in advance. Moreover, our figures are very similar. It's not impossible to pull off a switch. What do you think?"

After Jiang Zhirou finished speaking, she asked Chi Yu tentatively.

Regardless of whether Chi Yu agreed or not, she would carry out her plan.

But it would be better if Chi Yu agreed, as it would be more convenient to act without having to be secretive.

Chi Yu stared directly at Jiang Zhirou in front of him with a complicated look in his eyes.

The person in front of him had only been away for a month. Could a person change so much in just one month?

Chi Yu squinted his eyes, his gaze full of inquiry as he looked at Jiang Zhirou.

After an unknown amount of time, Chi Yu slowly said, "A switch? How do you mean?"

Hearing Chi Yu's question, a flash of joy quickly passed through Jiang Zhirou's eyes. She waved at Chi Yu, signaling him to come closer.

Chi Yu was stunned for a moment, then followed Jiang Zhirou's gesture and leaned towards her.

Jiang Zhirou leaned forward and whispered something in Chi Yu's ear.

The frown on Chi Yu's face gradually relaxed, and his expression became much calmer.

...

...

At the same time, in an abandoned factory on the outskirts.

The glass house was completely covered with newspapers. There was a used mattress in the room, and toiletries were placed beside it.

It was obvious that someone had been living here.

After a moment, a figure flashed by.

Xiang Yun was holding a stack of photos in her hand. She dragged her feet towards the empty wall beside the glass house.

Xiang Yun pasted the photos in her hand on the wall one by one. In a short while, there were only a few photos left in her hand.

In their place was a wall full of photos.

Everywhere she looked were photos of "Qing Mian".

Xiang Yun stood in front of the wall, looking at the photos on it with a gloomy expression.

The next second, she took out a dagger from somewhere and stabbed it fiercely into the photo of "Qing Mian"'s face.

...

...

"I'm going to the company. I want to take you home," Chi Yu asked for Jiang Zhirou's opinion.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhirou thought for a moment. "Is it the new company? The one you're going to sign me to?"

Hearing this, Chi Yu smiled and nodded at her. "Yes."

"You got it done so quickly?" Jiang Zhirou was very surprised. Her eyes were much wider than usual as she spoke. "Your efficiency is really high."

"I had basically finished it before I went to pick you up."

"Jing Hao called me earlier and said that someone had submitted a resume. I'm going to take a look."

Hearing Chi Yu's words, Jiang Zhirou gave him a suspicious look. "It seems that the person who submitted the resume has a big background. Even Boss Chi has to go and take a look in person. I'm quite curious, too. I'll go to the company with you."

Jiang Zhirou propped her face up with one hand and looked at Chi Yu with a smile.

Chi Yu also detected the subtle sarcasm in her words.

He chuckled softly and glanced at Jiang Zhirou. "I just remembered that you know the person who submitted the resume, too."

Hearing that she knew the person, a look of surprise flashed across Jiang Zhirou's face.

"Who?"

Qing Mian didn't have many friends. If she knew the person, it was most likely a classmate from Hanlin University.

A figure suddenly flashed through Jiang Zhirou's mind.

Then, Chi Yu's voice rang in her ear.

"Shu Yi."
