Jian Yan felt strange, walked forward, looked at the place where the boy disappeared, and asked Tong Ruixiao: "What happened to Xiao Mu? Did you two have a fight?"

The man tapped his fingers on the table, the anger still in his eyes, "Not only that, he's getting bolder and bolder!"

These words made Jian Yan's heart skip a beat.

"He couldn't possibly...have attacked you?"

Seeing that Tong Ruixiao didn't say anything, her heart sank. How could Xiao Mu hit his own father? He used to respect Tong Ruixiao so much, how could he do such a thing...

She withdrew her thoughts and looked at Tong Ruixiao, "Are you okay?"

The other party pressed his temples, adjusted his emotions, and calmed down his anger, "No, he can't hit me."

"Why are you two suddenly having such a big conflict?"

Tong Ruixiao: "It's a long story... By the way, you came to me to talk to me, right?"

Her face darkened slightly, "Well, Jian Yao has discovered that I'm back, and has found my new phone number."

She took out her cell phone and showed him the latest call record.

"He used an unfamiliar number from Jiangcheng, and I answered it without realizing it. He threatened my biological mother, Chen Yufang, to force me to return to the Jian family. He said that if I insisted on staying in Jiangcheng, Chen Yufang would be killed without a burial place."

"It took only a week to find them, and this was under confidentiality that we had not yet made public. This speed is too scary."

Tong Ruixiao pondered, "One week... This means that he still has spies in Jiangcheng. They are not near us, but they are not far away."

Her brows were furrowed. "Jian Yao would do anything to achieve his goal. This is about the original owner's biological mother. I can't watch her die, so I came to discuss it with you so late."

The man nodded and opened a file on his computer. "I have sorted out the information on Jian Yao's intentional murder and attempted murder and other crimes. We can take legal action now."

"Is it too late? I'm afraid he will be cornered and might even kill Chen Yufang to vent his anger."

"Not really. He needs to use Chen Yufang to threaten you all the time. Even if he is imprisoned, he will never kill Chen Yufang on impulse. After all, that would easily be discovered by the court. Then he would not just be imprisoned, but sentenced to death."

Tong Ruixiao made a phone call, "Lawyer Qiu, let's meet tomorrow morning to discuss what I told you before. I hope it can be implemented as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Jian Yan and said, "There will be some trouble in the next two days. It's really hard for you to stay at home all the time and not be able to go anywhere. Let's go out for a walk together after things are settled."

She smiled and asked: "Are you confident? Will you be outmaneuvered?"

After all, Tong Ruixiao and Jian Yao are in the same industry and are aware of what the other has done.

Although Tong Ruixiao is more principled than Jian Yao, once something violates his bottom line, he will deal with it more harshly than anyone else. He is not a pushover and his hands are not clean. If they really go to court, the other party may bite back.

"confident."

"It's just that we are still in a marriage, so I can't use anyone related to the Tong family to sue him. The lawyer I appointed will assist the other victim in suing Jian Yao."

"Sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger or killing someone with a borrowed knife?"

"No, the other party is alone and has no power to compete with Jian Yao," he thought for a moment, "it should be said that he is driving from afar and giving instructions."

"The other party is my stick puppet."

She sighed, "What a vivid image. I understand."

"I have already come up with a plan in my mind, but since you want to take it to court, let's do as you wish. After all, you were almost killed by someone he hired."

Tong Ruixiao was surprised and puzzled: "Almost killed? My injury is not that serious, right? I was just dreaming and unconscious for a few days, and I woke up when I woke up."

Jian Yan frowned, "What?"

"The doctor said the bullet was just a little off target and would have penetrated the abdominal aorta, but luckily it didn't hit it."

"But you were..."

She remembered that blood was gushing out of his abdomen and she couldn't cover it with her hands. The blood flowed out through her fingers, like water from a faucet, and could not be stopped.

Moreover, his consciousness blurred in a very short time, and he quickly became unconscious and dying. She didn't believe that there were no injuries to any important parts of his body.

At this moment, Jian Yan suddenly remembered the [Resurrection Pill], and he relaxed his breath immediately. He whispered thoughtfully, "So that pill worked..."

"What worked?"

Tong Ruixiao was a little confused when he heard her distracted and mumbling to herself.

Jian Yan glanced at him, frowned, and wondered whether to tell him...

If you tell an ordinary person that there is a god in the world who can let you live again, wouldn’t that arouse his greed?

Ancient emperors also wanted the elixir of immortality! What about ordinary people?

Greed is the most terrible thing. People can do all kinds of evil things for it and become cruel beasts.

He saw her hesitation and asked calmly, "Are you considering whether to tell me the truth?"

"Well, I always feel that the less people know, the happier they are. Otherwise, it's not good for anyone."

When Tong Ruixiao thought of the dream that almost led to their complete separation, he began to feel vaguely uneasy, fearing that he would know anything he shouldn't know.

Totally agree with her point of view.

He whispered, "Then I'd better not know."

"Well, you just need to know that I saved you once, and you just need to repay me at the critical moment." The woman raised her chin arrogantly and leaned back in the chair with her arms folded.

She gave him a pill that she was supposed to take when her life was in danger. Jian Yan did not regret it, because she achieved her goal. At that time, she had only one thought in her mind - don't let him die.

He did survive.

After listening to her words, Tong Ruixiao vaguely guessed what she meant - he was able to survive because of her.

He recalled vaguely hearing the doctor say things like "It's a stroke of luck that there was heavy bleeding but no vital injuries", "He almost died", "He was lucky", etc. when he was injected with anesthetic during the operation, and his eyelashes drooped.

But how did she save him?

He had doubts in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask further, for fear that he would hear something he shouldn't hear or see something he shouldn't see again, and push himself further away from her.

For some things, the less you know, the better.

He nodded. "In fact, even if you don't say it, I still remember it. When I fell, you supported me and covered my wound with your hands. You saved my life, so of course I should repay you."

As soon as Jian Yan saw his expression, she knew that he must have guessed the truth.

There were some things that she didn't even need to say, he understood them - it was as if they were connected in spirit.

She was suddenly shocked by her own thought and got goose bumps all over her body.

If we can really communicate with each other, then there will be no privacy or security at all. That's terrible!
