Ye Xiao looked at the corpse on the ground and didn’t respond to Cen Pan’s words. “Chen Feng, bring it back for appraisal.”
Just as Ye Xiao turned around, someone grabbed his wrist and he turned to look at the anxious Cen Pan.
“Mr. Ye, if you don’t believe me, I’ll take you to see someone.”
Cen Pan dragged him to look for the gambler. Just as she walked out, she was pulled back by a huge force.
Ye Xiao’s sharp gaze swept around and he reminded her softly, “To prove the truth of what happened more than twenty years ago, just a skeleton is not enough.”
The smell of the cigar lingered at the tip of Cen Pan’s nose. She raised her eyes and could clearly see the man’s sexy Adam’s apple.
Cen Pan was slightly stunned. Her warm hand was squeezed. “Leave the rest to me.”
It was only then that she realized that Ye Xiao had believed her words, and she could not help but feel some warmth in her heart.
Jiang Yao, who had been sent to the hospital, was not seriously injured. She had deliberately controlled the angle and strength of the wound. The wound looked scary, but it was actually just a superficial wound with some bleeding.
In order to force Ye Xiao to punish Cen Pan, she refused to be discharged. After having her wound bandaged, she kept looking at the door, but did not see Ye Xiao’s figure.
When it was almost dark, Jiang Yao’s patience ran out. She picked up the phone and was about to call Ye Xiao when the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open.
“Jiang Yao, bad news. Our daughter has been kidnapped.”
“What?” Jiang Yao suddenly sat up from the bed and stared at her gambling addict husband, Wang Meng. “What’s going on?”
“Our daughter has been kidnapped. The kidnappers are asking us for 30 million yuan as ransom,” Wang Meng said hurriedly.
Jiang Yao felt her mind go blank. Her daughter was a burden to her. Moreover, she hadn’t been by her side for so many years and she didn’t have any feelings for her at all.
How could Jiang Yao be willing to take out so much money all at once? Her mind raced as she said perfunctorily.
