Chapter 368 - Isolate Her (1/2)

Chen Chen had never thought of that problem but luckily Tuan Zi reminded her. If Jiang Rui fell in love with her, she had to leave. Besides, she would lose the custody battle with Jiang Rui, considering her capability to raise the child. Thus, she might even lose her daughter.

Imagining the miserable scene where Tuan Zi was being abused by her stepmother, Chen Chen trembled. She had to prevent it!

Lu Qi didn’t let Tuan Zi down for her first deed was to rummage through Chen Chen and Jiang Rui’s closet. She found their clothing was put together, even their underwear.

“How can a woman be charming if she still wears teen bras and plus she has a child…” She then went into the bathroom, seeing the two had lover’s towels, so she mumbled something disappointedly. At last, she went back to the room and wandered around, eyes finally set on the computer.

Jiang Rui pulled over the car at an exclusive shop. They went in and picked up some clothes, then came across Xie Hong and her son when they went out.

“So you are shopping too?” Xie Hong said hi first.

Chen Chen waved her hand and replied, “Yeah! What a coincidence.”

“Zeyu, say hi!” Xie Hong pushed his son who wore a serious face, while Tuan Zi smiled sweetly and said, “Hello, Wen Zeyu!”

Wen Zeyu blushed and stammered, “Tuan… Tuan Zi… He… Hello…”

“Look at my coward son!” Xie Hong said with a laugh, “By the way, are you all coming to the ball to celebrate the Spring Festival?”

Chen Chen uttered an “ah”. “What ball?”

Xie Hong glanced at Jiang Rui and realized that the man had not shown up before at the ball.

“Go ask your husband.” She whispered in Chen Chen’s ear.

“OK.” Chen Chen nodded and Xie Hong pulled Wen Zeyu as went in. “We’ll head in to the store then. Remember to take Tuan Zi to the ball!”

When they went back home with all kinds of shopping bags, Lu Qi was unwell out of their expectation.

“Officer Jiang, can you send me to the hospital!?” As soon as they entered the room, what came into sight was Lu Qi, wearing a gauze mask, sitting in the living room.

Chen Chen looked at her and asked, “What happened?”

Lu Qi said haltingly that she suddenly had a rash. Jiang Rui then called Bear to take her to the hospital.

“I’ll go to the study.” Jiang Rui darted a look at Ying Cheng, and the latter followed suit.

“Mom, go check your room to see whether you lost something.” Tuan Zi pushed her. As expected, Chen Chen found her computer had been opened for she knew well her computer was in sleep, while at the moment it had been powered off.

In the study, Ying Cheng asked curiously, “Why did you let that woman move in?”

“My grandpa owned the Lu family a favor, and I wanted to even things up.” Jiang Rui knocked on the table, “Besides, I wonder why the terrorists want her.”

Ying Cheng seemed to think of something. “Should I contact Johns and ask about if there have been movements recently?”

“This is exactly what I’m thinking so I asked you to come in.” Jiang Rui nodded. “I asked Bai Qi and he told me that recently someone hired a few assassins to kill several biochemical doctors from Europe…”

“Do you suspect that those killers are the ones who are seeking Lu Qi?” Ying Cheng thought it unbelievable. “Oh, no. Let alone the distance, how would this woman have something to do with the terrorists!”

Jiang Rui took a look at him and said, “Bear has been investigating those who had contact with her before she came back from abroad. And you…” He paused and coughed. “Take care of my wife and my daughter for the moment.”

“I understand!” Ying Cheng nodded, and Chong Jiangrui winked at Jiang Rui. “Why, you finally find my sister important?”

Ying Cheng thought in his mind, “If you knew she’s Liuliu, will you skin me…?”

“Mind your position. You are the one who’s living here for free.” Jiang Rui said rudely, “Only one week away from the Spring Festival. When do you plan to go back home?”

“Ah!” Ying Cheng pounded at the table and said, “I forgot to tell you that mom said they would spend the festival at your place.”

“They’re coming to the capital?” Jiang Rui first thought was the question of whether Ying Qingcang would agree to it.

Ying Cheng said with a sneaky smile, “Mom said she wanted to visit her daughter-in-law, and dad couldn’t stop her at all.”

Jiang Rui deemed his smile too weird and when he was wondering if he should beat him, the phone rang.

“Hello.”

“Boss, the doctor said she was poisoned.”

“Poisoned?” Jiang Rui frowned. “What kind of poison?”

“Undetectable.” The Bear said on the phone, “Doctors can only detect toxins in her blood, more than one.”

“Does she need to stay in the hospital?”

Bear sighed and went, “No. It wasn’t a mortal danger and the rash on the face will disappear in a few days.”

“Bring her back.” Jiang Rui hung up.

Ying Cheng ceased to smile and asked seriously, “Do you think it’s a biochemical toxin?”

“Ask Chen Chen and Tuan Zi to stay in the room and not come out.” Jiang Rui picked up the phone and went on, “I’ll call someone to come and see.”
