Chapter 232: Smuggling Arrested
Originally, Wu Yanan and I planned to play for half a month, but after a week, we basically walked all over the streets and alleys of the island country, and even the most famous mountain went around.
We didn't have anything else we wanted to go, so we decided to go back.
We didn't tell the public about it, and we planned to go back and surprise them.
That afternoon, we took the gifts we bought for everyone and stepped on the plane back to China.
Wu Yanan and I were separated at the airport, and I took a taxi back to the villa.
An hour and a half later, I arrived at the villa, and the bodyguard who stood guard outside the door came to help me take my luggage out of the trunk.
"Young lady, aren't you coming back next week? Why did you come back early? ”
"I'll come back when I've had enough, by the way, is Ah Cheng there?"
"The young master is still in the company."
The bodyguard's flustered tone drew a side glance at me, but I didn't care.
I walked inside with my suitcase, thinking that it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and even if Jiang Cheng came back, it would be evening.
I just had a break and waited for him to come back in the evening.
Sister-in-law Zhang had already learned the news of my return from the bodyguard outside the gate, so she stayed at the door in advance, and as soon as she saw me, she came quickly.
"Young lady, why didn't you say it in advance when you came back?"
I wondered if there would be anything wrong with me coming back, one or two of them were so nervous.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, is there anything going on at home lately?" I pretended to be a casual question.
Sister-in-law Zhang's face was flustered, and her eyes dodged and said, "It's okay, everything is fine at home." ”
The more she said this, the more confused I became, but I didn't know what was going on for the time being, so I decided to wait and see.
"It's okay, I'll go back to my room to rest in a while, by the way, don't tell Ah Cheng about my return, I'll surprise him at night."
"Yes." This time, Sister-in-law Zhang agreed very happily.
I pretended not to see eye contact between Sister-in-law Zhang and the bodyguard, and returned to the room with my suitcase.
I hadn't been at home for a few days, and the smell of the familiar smell in the air made my whole body and mind feel comfortable.
After simply putting my luggage away, I took a change of clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
The afternoon is a great time to take a nap, so I feel a wave of sleepiness when I come out of the shower.
I yawned and lay on the bed, my eyes closed, and I quickly fell asleep.
I slept for a long time and woke up about two hours later.
At this time, the sun was already setting in the west, and the afterglow shone into the room through the open floor-to-ceiling windows, and the plain quilt cover was also dyed with a faint golden light.
I stepped barefoot on the floor and stepped out onto the balcony, staring at the vanishing red sun and the brilliant fiery clouds.
It's rare to see such a scene, but it's a pity that Jiang Cheng hasn't come back yet, otherwise we would be so arbitrary to stand here and watch the sunset together.
Waiting for the sun to completely sink in the west, I withdrew my eyes, changed into my home clothes and walked downstairs.
At this time, Jiang Cheng had not come back yet, Sister-in-law Zhang was busy in the kitchen, and I was bored, so I turned on my phone and swiped it.
brushed and brushed, and a piece of news suddenly popped up in front of him, saying that Yuncheng's president was arrested.
My spirit was shocked, isn't the president of Yuncheng Jiang Cheng?
I clicked on the news to see if it was true or false, but the news was only this word, with no beginning and no tail, which made people confused.
And just as I was waiting to see who posted it, I found that the message had disappeared into thin air, as if it had never appeared at all.
I entered Yuncheng's name, and none of the messages I found came out of this one.
I'm sure I read that right, so the only explanation is that the message was deleted in seconds.
I originally wanted to call Jiang Cheng, but I was worried that it would be an oolong.
So thinking of the strangeness of Sister-in-law Zhang and the bodyguard before, I strode to the kitchen to find Sister-in-law Zhang.
There was a special chef in the villa, but Sister-in-law Zhang occasionally cooked, and she was chopping vegetables when I came over.
I glanced at it and fixed my eyes on Sister-in-law Zhang's face.
"Sister-in-law Zhang, where is Ah Cheng?"
Sister-in-law Zhang's hand shook and almost cut into her own hand.
"The young master hasn't come back yet, maybe the company is busy. If you are hungry, please eat some snacks first, and the meal will be ready immediately. Sister-in-law Zhang said with a dodge in her eyes.
My heart sank slightly, pursed my lips and said, "I just watched the news and said that Ah Cheng was arrested. ”
The knife in Sister-in-law Zhang's hand fell on the cutting board with a clatter, and she said with a worried face: "Young lady, you were listened to, they were scribbled." ”
These words caused me to feel extremely uneasy, and I became more and more anxious, "Sister-in-law, tell me, what's going on now, is something wrong with Ah Cheng?" ”
Seeing that Sister-in-law Zhang was still hesitating, I turned my heart sideways, gritted my teeth and said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go to Jiang Cheng and ask." ”
Sister-in-law Zhang lowered her head slightly, with a sad look on her face: "Yes, the young master has been arrested." ”
I was like a bolt from the blue, and I couldn't believe my ears.
It took me a long time before I found my voice, and with trembling lips, I asked, "He...... What did he do? ”
Sister-in-law Zhang turned her face sideways and said in a deep voice: "Smuggling." ”
"It can't be."
I still know Jiang Cheng's character, although he is a businessman, he will not do such a thing that violates discipline.
But almost instantly, I thought of a question, what if Jiang Cheng was smuggling not for his own benefit, but to help others?
In an instant, the figure of Ye Changling appeared in my mind.
My heart tightened, if it was really related to Ye Changling, then this matter ......
Maybe it's true.
Seeing that the more I thought about it, the more biased I became, I quickly drove this unrealistic idea out of my mind.
I haven't seen Jiang Cheng yet, and everything is just my guess.
"When was Ah Cheng arrested?"
"Three days ago."
"Why didn't you talk about this earlier?" I was so angry that my chest hurt.
I didn't tell me about it for three days, and if I hadn't come back early, I'm afraid I would have known.
"It's the young master who ordered me not to tell you, young lady, for fear that you will worry." Sister-in-law Zhang looked guilty.
I calmed down, and now is not the time to blame anyone, but to see what happened to the matter.
As for Jiang Cheng hiding it from me, I will settle accounts with him when he comes out.
"What about Xu Yue?"
Xu Yue is Jiang Cheng's assistant, and he must know more things.
"Mr. Xu was also arrested."
I was stunned, even Xu Yue was arrested, it seems that this matter is more complicated than I imagined.
"Where's the old mansion?"
Jiang's father and mother only have such a son, Jiang Cheng, and they will definitely find a way to rescue him.
"Although the lord and the lady were not arrested, the old mansion was taken care of, and they couldn't get in or out."
Now I was really shocked, this is something terrible smuggled to control Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
At the same time, this also dispelled my plan to go to the old mansion to find Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
After talking to Sister-in-law Zhang, I returned to the room in a state of despair, and I didn't even have the energy to eat dinner.
I took out my mobile phone and was about to go to someone to ask about the current situation, but after looking around, I found that I basically didn't know about Jiang Cheng's friends.
Finally I called Su Xinyuan, thinking about what she might know.
After the phone was connected, I quickly finished talking about my intentions, and Su Xinyuan was silent for a moment before saying: "This matter is very important, and I don't know very well, but you have to believe Jiang Cheng, he is not a person who would do such a thing." ”
"I believe in him, too, but I'm worried now, is there any way you can let me meet him?"
Only Jiang Cheng knew the truth about this matter, so I desperately wanted to meet him so that I could rest assured.
"I'll do my best, but don't get your hopes up, after all, it's not for us businessmen to interfere in this matter."
"I understand, thank you."
After a few more simple words with Su Xinyuan, I hung up the phone, and I leaned against the wall in a distraction, my heart was in a mess.
Within a few minutes, the phone rang.
I thought it was Su Xinyuan calling, so I happily picked it up and was about to pick it up, but I saw that it was Wu Yanan calling.
She called at this time, most likely because of Xu Yue's matter. Thinking of Sister-in-law Zhang's words, I hesitated for a while before answering the phone.
"Ruoyao, do you know where Xu Yue went? I couldn't find him, and I wouldn't answer the phone. Wu Yanan said in a panic.
I suppressed the worries in my heart and pretended to be relaxed and said, "He and Ah Cheng went abroad to discuss a business, and I just found out." ”
Wu Yanan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's the case, I thought something was wrong, and I suddenly couldn't contact anyone." ”
"Well, don't worry, they'll be back in a few days. It's more important over there, and he may not have time to get back to you. ”
"As long as he's okay, it doesn't matter if he doesn't reply or not." Wu Yanan regained her previous pretty, "I couldn't contact him just now, I thought something was wrong, and I was scared to death." ”
I smiled reluctantly: "Jiang Cheng is also here, don't worry." ”
"Well, then Ruoyao is okay, I'll hang up first, you rest early."
"Okay."
I hung up the phone and slid my body to the floor like a puddle of mud.
In the past, Jiang Cheng was not without a night without a home, but only today, I couldn't sleep and eat.
Lying on the bed tossing and turning and unable to sleep, as soon as I close my eyes, I will think of Jiang Cheng, guess his current situation, and worry about our future.
The next day, I woke up with a pair of panda eyes, and thankfully I texted Ike last night, asking him to take full charge of the studio for the next few days.
Otherwise, if you go to the studio like this, the horror will attract countless suspicions.
I semi-forced myself to eat breakfast, and then I kept my phone guarded, worried that I would miss Su Xinyuan's call.
However, to my disappointment, the phone never rang that day.
I sighed silently and looked around.
Because of Jiang Cheng's matter, this villa was already quiet, but now it is even quieter, and you can even hear a needle falling on the ground.
At this time, an abrupt mobile phone ringtone, listening to the sound, it seems to be my mobile phone.
My thoughts quickly returned, I hurriedly picked up my mobile phone, and when I saw Su Xinyuan's three words, I swiped it with trembling fingers and answered it.
