Chapter 31: The Tip of the Iceberg
After yesterday's madness, Lin Shan was sore, and the moment she woke up, she only felt as if her body was about to fall apart.
Fortunately, although she was very tired, she didn't have a fever, her hand was crossed, and there was no one beside her, and she didn't even have any residual temperature.
Someone knocked on the door three times and walked in slowly.
"Miss, this is a longan white fungus porridge specially prepared for you." Coming in was a middle-aged woman in her fifties, kind and kind-eyed, with a kind motherly intimacy.
She woke Lin Shan up from her stunned and gave her the warmth of the world.
Lin Shan wanted to get up from the bed, but her feet softened as soon as she touched the ground, which could only blame Jiang Lingcheng for not honestly 'torturing' her after she fell asleep.
When the woman saw it, she smiled understandingly, put down the porridge, and came to help Lin Shan.
"Thank you."
"Who are you?"
"I'm just a cooking aunt here. My surname is Huang, you can just call me Aunt Huang. She kept looking at Lin Shan's appearance as she spoke.
This little girl is so good-looking, her eyes are smart, her skin is tender and white, she speaks softly and politely, or we Jiang always have vision.
"Thank you, Aunt Huang. My name is Lin Shan, you can call me Shanshan, where is this? Lin Shan only knew that Jiang Lingcheng had brought her here, but she didn't know what this place was.
"This is Mr. Jiang's private villa, which can also be regarded as his home." The more Aunt Huang looked at Lin Shan, the more she liked her, as if she was her own daughter-in-law, and as if she was her own daughter-in-law.
This is true, although she is just a cooking aunt, she has been cooking for Jiang Lingcheng for nearly twenty years, and she has taken care of him since he was a child, although she can't call herself his mother, she is also a mother-like existence, and she has a lot of weight in Jiang Lingcheng's heart.
"Well, I'd better go." Lin Shan thought to herself, Jiang Lingcheng should have been forced to bring himself here, and since he woke up, he was embarrassed to stay any longer.
"Don't worry, Mr. Jiang has instructed, Miss Lin can stay here temporarily."
Lin Shan's heart warmed, and she took a sip of porridge and asked, "Then where is he now?" ”
Aunt Huang's face was embarrassed, frowned, and said hesitantly: "He is now in the Sangzhu Villa." ”
Mulberry and bamboo villas? Lin Shan suddenly realized and remembered that today was the day he and Ji Wanning got engaged.....
In that case, what does it mean that he brought Lin Shan here and let her live here, playing tricks?!
Lin Shan packed her things and was about to leave, but Aunt Huang stopped her again, Lin Shan had no choice but to say: "Aunt Huang, he is engaged, and this can only be the place where the hostess lives." It's not appropriate for me to live here, I have to leave. ”
Aunt Huang sighed, and also saw that there were many misunderstandings between the two of them, and as an outsider, she couldn't say anything, but she could see that Mr. Jiang cared about Lin Shan very much, after all, she had worked here for twenty years, and Lin Shan was the only woman he had come here.
She persuaded, "Miss, although I don't know why, I believe that he must have some trouble in doing so. ”
Lin Shan believes that he has a hard time, but she doesn't believe that he can marry another woman for his hard work, and he will become a junior in the mouth of others.
"Aunt Huang, he has a hard time, I also have a hard time, I have to leave." Lin Shan didn't say a word, and rushed out directly.
As a result, he was stopped by Wu Ming at the door, he still had injuries on his face, and he stopped Lin Shan expressionlessly, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break through the defense line.
Aunt Huang came up and grabbed Lin Shan and comforted: "Mr. Jiang is worried about Miss's safety, so he specially sent someone to protect Miss. ”
Protection? It's surveillance, it's trying to keep her here.
"Wu Ming, you get out of the way for me!" Lin Shan said sharply.
Wu Ming just glanced at her lightly, ignoring her and not retreating.
"You won't forget the agreement you made with me that day." Lin Shan reminded him that if he still wanted her to help him, then he had to let her go first.
Sure enough, Wu Ming's eyes lit up as soon as he heard the word agreement, pulled Lin Shan and brought him into the room, and scolded her with a slashing face, "You're embarrassed to tell me about it!" ”
"The wound on my face is all thanks to you!"
Wu Ming remembered that after he went back that day, he was caught by Jiang Lingcheng's men, although he could beat ten at a time, but Jiang Lingcheng had a lot of people, and dozens of people came up to beat him, he beat him so hard that he was almost killed. He really underestimated Jiang Lingcheng's monitoring of Lin Shan, and he didn't expect that what he said to Lin Shan was almost heard.
Lin Shan was a little speechless, obviously you were going to blackmail me, even if you were discovered, that is, you deserved it.
"You deserve it!"
"Yes, I deserve it, but you're not qualified to speak of me. After all, what someone said before was actually just a waste whose body would succumb to Jiang Lingcheng's obscenity. Wu Ming looked Lin Shan's body up and down with explicit eyes, he could see the scene of her and Jiang Lingcheng so vigorously!
Lin Shan blushed and scolded him secretly, "Shameless! ”
Wu Ming touched the wounds on his face, the scars that sank into the flesh and skin only made his hatred for Jiang Lingcheng deeper, but now he had found a way to make Jiang Lingcheng more painful.
Lin Shan suddenly felt a cold gaze behind her, and when she turned around, Wu Ming was staring at her with bad intentions, and a bad cold crept up from her back, and she immediately drove Wu Ming out.
She is very confused now, although she has long learned the news of Jiang Lingcheng's engagement, but on this day, it is false to say that she doesn't care, she planned to die when she saw him engaged, but it is easier said than done, and now things have changed again.
The unwarranted photo, as well as what Ji Wanning said to her that day, "I want you and Jiang Lingcheng to pay the price for Jiang Lingxi's death!" Lin Shan thought that what she had in her hands was the truth, but now that it seems that this is the tip of the iceberg, Jiang Lingxi's death is not a simple accident, there is a powerful mastermind behind the scenes who is manipulating all this, not only her, maybe even Jiang Lingcheng doesn't know.
Lin Shan guessed that Jiang Lingxi's existence was not a secret, at least it was not a secret within the Jiang Group, and if Jiang Lingxi had the intention to compete for the position of heir, then there must be someone within the group who supported him, then his death would be an accident created by his opponent, could it be that the murderer was Jiang Lingcheng....
No, no, no! Lin Shan hurriedly interrupted his thinking, it couldn't be Jiang Lingcheng, he didn't know Jiang Lingxi's true face....
