Chapter 419 - Who Set the Trap for Who...? (1/2)
Before Bai Kai moved, the people from the Lu family behind him had scattered all at once.
Glancing at those people fiercely, Bai Kai turned sideways and said, “It’s not over. I’ll wait and see!”
“Liuliu?” Jiang Rui found that the person in his arms was shaking harder and harder. He picked her up right away and strode away.
Wen Pintang sat in the car and said, “Feel free to call me.”
Watching Jiang Rui’s car leave, Xie Hong was a little worried. “If Bai Weirong really has a miscarriage…”
“So what?” Wen Pintang said lightly, “As a witness, you can prove that it was Bai Weirong that slapped Liuliu first. The Wan family will definitely let her pay for that, even she died today, let alone having a miscarriage.”
“She must pay for slapping Liuliu in the face.”
Xie Hong had planned to say something else, but kept to smiling and keeping quiet. After going home, they were told by Wen Zeyu that Tuan Zi had been picked up by Bear, and Wen Zeyu also asked if something had happened to them. Wen Pintang didn’t tell him that, and only asked him not to disturb Tuan Zi during those days.
After returning home, Jiang Rui took Chen Chen into the bathroom. “Liuliu, will you undress yourself or let me undress you?”
Chen Chen looked shockingly pale. “Brother… Brother Xiao Rui… Her baby…”
“Listen to me. It has nothing to do with you. Just take a bath and eat ice cream!” Jiang Rui said while reaching out to unbutton her dress.
Of course, she was unwilling to let him take off her clothes. She stutteringly said that she could do it herself and pushed him out.
“Liuliu, remember to take a bath. Otherwise, I will come in. You know the door can’t stop me.” Jiang Rui said outside the door. It was quiet inside, but he knew that Chen Chen understood what he meant.
In the living room, Xiao Si, and Bear who had just arrived, looked serious. That matter could develop into a big deal or a trifle. If the Bai family didn’t let it go, they would very likely bring it to court.
“Boss!” When Jiang Rui came out, they hurriedly asked, “How is Mrs. Jiang?”
Jiang Rui shook his head. “Collect the information about the waiter.”
“The one who poured the wine on Mrs. Jiang?”
Jiang Rui had already learned the story from Xiao Si, saying fiercely, “Boss, you mean that… Mrs. Jiang was framed?”
“I’ll do it right away!” Xiao Si opened the door and ran away.
Bear said, “Fuck! Who is it? Long Zhen’ao?”
“It’s not him.” Jiang Rui shook his head. “He would never do such a thing.” Jiang Rui sneered and said, “I suspect it is Lu Tao!”
“That’s his child, too!” Bear couldn’t believe it.
Jiang Rui replied. “He had not planned to have that child.”
What Lu Tao wanted was the support of the Bai family. Sacrificing an unborn baby for framing Jiang Rui was absolutely something he would do.
“Does he think that such a thing would destroy us?” Bear clenched his fist. “Fuck! I must find a chance to beat him up.”
“He’s not so naive.” Jiang Rui glanced at Chen Chen’s room. “We must find if it was he who framed us first. Then we’ll just wait and see what he wants to do.”
Seeing that he had been glancing at the room, Bear knew that he was worried about Chen Chen. He stood up and said, “I’ll go pick up Tuan Zi!”
Jiang Rui sat and pondered in the living room for a while, and heard some noise. Chen Chen came out with red eyes, with water still dripping from her hair.
“Come here!” He sighed and took a towel. “Are you not afraid of catching a cold?”
Chen Chen sat down beside him. Jiang Rui said while drying her hair, “Don’t you believe me?”
“What?” Chen Chen looked up in a daze.
“I said it had nothing to do with you. But you don’t believe me.”
“But… I actually pushed her and she fell down. At that time, she slapped me. It really hurt and I forgot that she was pregnant.”
Jiang Rui took a closer look at her face, and when he found that it was still a little inflamed, his face clouded. She wrapped her hair in a towel and went into the kitchen. Chen Chen saw him take out a bag of ice and lightly closed her lips. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”
“How could it not hurt when your face is so swollen?” Jiang Rui put the ice on her face gently. “This incident was deliberately designed by someone. It’s not your fault.”
Hearing his words, Chen Chen moved with surprise, only to bump her face against the ice bag. Her face twisted in pain.
She gasped and asked, “What do you mean?”
“They’ve gone to make an investigation. You just need to know that it’s not your fault. When the truth is revealed, you’ll naturally know what’s going on.”
After hearing what he said, Chen Chen felt more relieved. Anyway, if it was her push that made Bai Weirong have a miscarriage, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Seeing her yawn, Jiang Rui told her to lie down. “Sleep for a while. I’ll cook now.”
“I can’t sleep.” Chen Chen looked at him pitifully. Jiang Rui sat beside her, and continued to dry her hair, slowly massaging her scalp. Soon, Chen Chen became sleepy, but she still tried to stay awake and said, “I hope the baby is fine…”
When Chen Chen fell asleep, Jiang Rui carefully covered her with a blanket, and then heard the dog barking outside the door.
