Chapter 294 - The Old Man Would Not Stop You. Instead, He Would Personally Hand You A Gun (1/2)

Jiang Ruolan bit her lips and asked softly, ”Have you found Wei Donghai?”

”We've found him. Besides, I've sent people to control him from the shadows. Any actions he takes will be informed to me right away.”

Xian Zihao closed the files in his hand and gently pulled Jiang Ruolan into his embrace. He gently patted her head. ”Don't be afraid, I won't let you get hurt again. Wei Donghai and the mastermind behind him will be caught. I am just waiting for them to enter the net. Wei Donghai is my bait. He won't be a threat to you anymore.”

”You mean the person behind him isn't as simple as Jiang Bingqing?” Jiang Ruolan was surprised.

”Bingqing and Wei Donghai are only in a cooperative relationship, and she cannot interfere with his actions. Behind Wei Donghai's actions, there is still a bigger conspiracy. However, it is not a big threat. Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you again.” Seeing the worry in her eyes, Xian Zihao embraced her tightly, and his tone was filled with comfort and love.

”Go back to my room and relax. We'll leave at noon.” Although not many people pass by in the corridor, Jiang Ruolan was still very shy. She quickly opened her mouth to ask Xian Zihao to put her down, but when she saw how serious his expression was, it was as if he feared her leg injury would worsen, she couldn't say a word.

The care and tenderness in his eyes were very obvious. Jiang Ruolan could only awkwardly not look at the two staff members who passed by and let him carry her back to their room.

After a moment, Xian Zihao left the room as he had something to take care of. Jiang Ruolan could only sit outside the window and watched the bright and sunny weather while waiting for him. She picked up a pear from the fruit bowl and began to nibble on it.

As she ate, she suddenly thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night.

At the same time, someone knocked on the door. It was a female staff member and the doctor from yesterday. The doctor came in and respectfully said, ”Miss Jiang, President Xian asked me to come and check your ankle.”

Jiang Ruolan nodded and limped over to the bed.

”The swelling has not completely disappeared. You need to continue pressing it with ice bags.” After the doctor checked her feet, he said carefully, ”The swelling was very severe last night, and it has disappeared so much. You recover quickly. You need to keep pressing it with an ice bag for another two or three hours, take some medicine, and continue to rest. Your ankle will recover after a week. But you must remember to be careful when walking and not get any more sprain.”

”Thank you.” Jiang Ruolan took the ice bag and thanked the doctor. She looked up to see the female staff member change two plates of fresh fruit that looked like they had just been taken out of the freezer, then said softly, ”Can I ask where the person in charge of your farm, Uncle Huang?”

The staff member was startled and turned to look at her. ”Miss Jiang is looking for Uncle Huang? He should be in the orchard now. It's not convenient for you to go there right now. I'll go call Uncle Huang for you.”

”That's troublesome.” Jiang Ruolan chuckled.

”It's alright, Uncle Huang likes to walk around. He always says it's good for the body.” The staff smiled and turned to leave.

After the doctor had left, Jiang Ruolan thought of what Uncle Huang had said last night. He said that he had met that girl in G City. She was 99% sure that the girl he was talking about was her mother, Zhou Qingling.

After a while, the staff came back and said apologetically, ”Miss Jiang, I'm very sorry. Uncle Huang is not at the orchard today. I just asked around and found out that today is the day Uncle Huang went out to purchase seedlings. He will be back in three or four days.”

There was a tinge of disappointment in Jiang Ruolan's eyes, but she smiled at the staff. ”It's alright. I'm sorry for troubling you.”

Since Wan Shoushan already knew Jiang Ruolan's identity, he couldn't wait for her. After eating breakfast, he immediately went back to the company with Xie Mei.

Since there's nothing she could do right now, Jiang Ruolan decided to sleep. She was sleeping until noon. When she woke up, she saw Xian Zihao helping her put new ice bags on her feet. Jiang Ruolan was a light sleeper, she can get easily awake.
