Song Shuning knew that Zhou Jinxia was doing this for her own good, but now was not the time to talk about this.

She changed the subject, "Xia Xia, Jiang Xu's nephew is sick again, can you ask your uncle to help take a look?"

Zhou Jinxia's second uncle is a well-known neurosurgeon in the country. Xiaobao's condition had already stabilized, so Song Shuning didn't want to trouble him.

But now he suddenly fell ill again. Song Shuning was really worried and could only ask Uncle Zhou Er for help.

"My second uncle is indeed in the country these days. I'm not at the old house. Wait, I'll call and ask right away." Zhou Jinxia said, and hung up the phone.

She knew Song Shuning's personality. Song Shuning liked children and was kind-hearted. She would definitely not want to see Jiang Xu's nephew suffer.

Thinking about Uncle Zhou Er's stern temper, Zhou Jinxia gritted her teeth and made the call.

Song Shuning didn't dare to waste time and just hung up Zhou Jinxia's call, but she felt uneasy in her heart. She had to quickly ask which hospital the child was in.

After skillfully entering Jiang Xu's phone number, she hesitated.

Jiang Xu said that I didn't need to go by myself. Besides, he didn't know my family background, and asking him directly would only cause trouble later.

Now was not a good time to confess, so she bit her lip and called the hospital closest to Jiang Nian's home.

The child's illness came on urgently, so he wouldn't have to go too far, and it wouldn't take much time to ask around.

Jiang Xu returned to the company the next afternoon, but to his surprise, Song Shuning was not in the company.

Although Song Shuning looks gentle, he sets very high standards for himself and has never been late, let alone asked for leave.

I called my subordinates to ask, and they said Song Shuning said he couldn't come today because of something.

Jiang Xu felt guilty. Although he had already explained everything to his elder sister and nephew, he was still afraid of making any mistakes.

He called Song Shuning directly to test the waters.

A gentle electronic female voice came from the receiver.

She turned off her phone.

Jiang Xu couldn't sit still anymore, so he took the car keys and went to find Song Shuning.

When his junior supervisor saw him about to go out, he blocked him back with a bunch of documents.

Song Shuning didn't come all morning as there were many things waiting for the manager to decide.

If she doesn't ask for instructions now, and the project progress is delayed later, it will be her responsibility.

At this time, Song Shuning was at Zhou Jinxia's house. His eyes were still red, his hair was messy, and he looked listless.

Zhou Jinxia sat nearby, feeling somewhat worried.

On the small table, there are some scattered photos.

Jiang Xu in the photo was smiling happily, but the person in his arms was not Song Shuning.

All this information was delivered this morning.

-

Last night, Song Shuning called all the hospitals near Jiang Nian's home, but couldn't find out which hospital Jiang Xu's nephew was admitted to.

The doubts in her heart grew bigger and bigger, and she was unwilling to believe that Jiang Xu was lying to her.

But things have come to this point, and we must get to the bottom of it.

Song Shuning went to Jiang Nian's rental house.

When Jiang Nian first moved in, Jiang Xu brought Song Shuning here once. She remembered it was on the sixth floor on the east side.

It was late at night and all the lights were on in every house, except Jiang Nian's house, which was dark.

It was so late, it was impossible for Jiang Nian to hang around outside with the child. Song Shuning felt that she was being too suspicious.

Maybe they went to a small clinic out of desperation? Jiang Nian's salary was not high.

Thinking of the small clinic, she became worried again.

If a small clinic wants to run well, it has to see quick results, so it often prescribes stronger drugs. Xiaobao is still young, so it is more likely to get into trouble due to overdose.

After thinking it over, Song Shuning sent a message to Jiang Xu, "How is Xiaobao now?"

"It's okay now."

Jiang Xu replied quickly.

Seeing the words "It's okay", Song Shuning calmed down.

"I'll take my eldest sister and the children to eat something. They will be settled in the hospital today. There will be a checkup tomorrow morning. I will go to the company after noon. You don't have to worry."

After seeing Jiang Xu's subsequent arrangements, Song Shuning felt more at ease.

Maybe I'm overthinking it.

She relaxed and leaned back on the driver's seat. After a while, she sat up straight again and prepared to start the car and go back.

Just then, a mother and son came over from afar.

Passing under the street light, Song Shuning recognized at a glance that it was Jiang Nian and Xiao Bao.

Didn’t Jiang Xu take them out to eat?

Didn’t you say you were staying in the hospital today?

Did you forget to take something?

By the way, where is Jiang Xuren?

The doubts that had just been suppressed rose up again and could not be contained.

The mother and son approached from a distance and did not notice Song Shuning in the car.

"Mom, didn't uncle ask us to come back tomorrow? Will he be angry if we come back now?"

Xiaobao frowned and tugged at Jiang Nian's sleeve.

Jiang Nian looked at his confused son, sighed, and squatted down to look at his son straight in the eye.

"Xiaobao, Mommy said, what should we do as human beings?"

Xiaobao didn't understand, but answered loudly, "Be honest."

Jiang Nian nodded, "Is uncle honest?"

Thinking about his uncle's words that he had told him to go to the hospital today, Xiaobao shook his head, but felt a little uncomfortable.

Uncle helped them a lot, and Xiaobao didn't think that his uncle was a dishonest bad person.

"But, my uncle said he had a big client to meet with, and he wanted to give Aunt Shuning a surprise after the deal was done, so he asked us to help."

Xiaobao didn't think it was a lie. He had seen it on TV at his neighbor's grandmother's house. It was a white lie.

Jiang Nian thought of Jiang Xu who had just left and felt a little angry. It was his business to do whatever he wanted, but he had to use them as a cover.

It's simply going to corrupt the children.

"Xiaobao, did you see the aunt sitting in uncle's car?"

The child nodded. "That auntie was pretty and gentle, and she even smiled at me."

Jiang Xu’s big client must be very impressive, how could he be a pretty and amiable girl?

Although Jiang Nian was just an ordinary office employee, there was nothing he didn't understand after seeing that scene.

But Jiang Xu always left after giving instructions, so he didn't give her a chance to refuse.

"What does Xiaobao think a big customer should be like?"

"Riding in a big car with lots of bodyguards." The child had no idea about these things and just recounted what he had seen on the TV show.

"Do you think that auntie is a big customer?" Jiang Nian coaxed.

Xiaobao pouted and shook his head. But thinking of what his uncle had told him before, he felt like he had betrayed his uncle and felt very uncomfortable.

Jiang Nian had been looking at his son seriously. Seeing that he understood, he didn't say much. He stood up and left with the child.

She didn't expect the child to understand the deeper twists and turns now, she just wanted the child to be as upright as possible.

Thinking of Song Shuning, she actually felt sorry, but she chose to hide it in the end.

The footsteps of the mother and son were getting farther and farther away, but Song Shuning felt more and more depressed as he listened to their conversation.

So, Jiang Xu just used the excuse of his nephew's illness to meet with others?

Song Shuning looked at the few words Jiang Xu sent over and said, "Have a good rest, see you tomorrow."

I just felt it was extremely ironic.

At this time, Zhou Jinxia called.

"Ningning, I've already asked my second uncle, and he can go over right now. Which hospital is Xiaobao in?"

The voice sounded urgent, just like Song Shuning was anxious.

"Thank you, but thanks." When Song Shuning said this, he found that his throat was dry and even his voice became a little hoarse.

She cleared her throat, "The child is fine."

"Is everything alright?" Zhou Jinxia on the other end also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. This child has been through a lot..."

"Xia Xia, Jiang Xu is dating someone else now." Song Shuning said this with difficulty, tears already falling uncontrollably.

"No...anyone else?"
