Arranged marriage, love blossoms: Marrying into a wealthy family while holding a miniature version o

Sun Huilan and Zhou Jianye left the hospital, and as soon as they stepped out and stood under the scorching sun, Sun Huilan became fully awake.

"Jianye, you get in the car first, I still need to go and take a look."

"I'm still not at ease."

Sun Huilan told Zhou Jianye that her face was full of worry for her children.

Zhou Jianye was no longer angry.

Once inside the elevator, his previous terrible rage vanished.

I don't know where they went.

By this point, he had the demeanor of a boss who remained calm and composed no matter what happened.

It seems that the person who caused a scene outside the ward earlier was not him, but someone else.

Upon hearing Sun Huilan's words, his expression shifted slightly as he looked at her and asked, "Huilan, why is Qin Shi at the hospital?"

He was incredibly patient with Sun Huilan, showing absolutely no impatience with Zhou Yi.

It seems that he reserved all his patience and gentleness for Sun Huilan.

Upon hearing his words, Sun Huilan's brows furrowed instantly: "I don't know either."

"You know Shi'er's personality. He doesn't like to interact with people, and he's always been aloof and indifferent to everyone."

“Every time I call him, I only say a few words and then hang up. If it weren’t for the fact that I’m his mother, he probably wouldn’t even answer my calls.”

"Not many people know that my mother-in-law is sick and hospitalized this time, and I certainly won't tell Shi'er."

"but……"

Sun Huilan stopped speaking abruptly at this point.

And at just the right moment, she showed an uncertain expression.

Seeing her expression, Zhou Jianye narrowed his eyes: "But what?"

Sun Huilan frowned even more, and as if afraid that Zhou Jianye would react badly to what she was about to say, she grabbed Zhou Jianye's hand and said, guessing, "Jianye, I suspect that Yiyi took the wrong turn."

"what?"

Zhou Jianye frowned for a moment, not understanding the meaning of Sun Huilan's words.

Sun Huilan quickly said, "You saw the bodyguards just now. They weren't ordinary bodyguards. They only recognized Yiyi, not you or me. Even though you and I are my mother-in-law's own son and daughter-in-law, they wouldn't let us in."

“You know Yiyi. She went to work right after graduating from high school. I heard that she is now the manager of a maternity and baby store. The doctors who treated my mother-in-law this time were all from the city. They are all top-notch doctors. You can’t hire them just like everyone else.”

"I think... Yiyi might... maybe..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jianye roughly understood what Sun Huilan meant.

They all knew Zhou Yi's limitations; she didn't have the ability to hire so many top doctors and have bodyguards diligently guarding her outside.

Besides, she became someone's concubine.

There's no other possibility.

Sun Huilan deliberately hesitated, not revealing her guess.

But Zhou Jianye's expression clearly indicated that she understood. She said, "If that's really the case, what can we do?"

"Although Yiyi wasn't raised by us when she was little, she still bears the surname Zhou, so she's still your daughter no matter what."

"If she does something bad and it gets exposed, it will definitely affect you."

“I’m not worried about anything else, but I’m afraid your company will be affected because of Yiyi.”

“I know it’s not easy for the company to get to where it is today. It’s all thanks to your hard work. I can’t bear to see your hard work destroyed like this.”

Sun Huilan spoke very harshly, as if Zhou Yi was a great threat who could bring a fatal blow to Zhou Jianye at any time.

just.

Upon hearing her words, Zhou Jianye did not become angry as she expected; instead, he remained remarkably calm.

Even more so, the expression in Zhou Jianye's eyes flashed so quickly that Sun Huilan couldn't see it clearly.

However, Zhou Jianye's current appearance made Sun Huilan feel uneasy.

She tentatively asked, "Jianye, what are you thinking?"

"This matter can be a big deal or a small deal."

"Especially at this time, it's a very sensitive period."

The two stood under the blazing sun, but Zhou Jianye's expression was obscured by the sunlight.

However, he did not show any anger.

Not at all.

At that moment, after Sun Huilan finished speaking, he turned around, looked at the hospital reflecting the sunlight, and said, "I will have someone investigate this matter."

"check?"

Sun Huilan looked at Zhou Jianye with a moment of disbelief.

Zhou Jianye's expression was so calm that she couldn't fathom his thoughts.

Zhou Jianye looked away and said, "Okay, let's investigate first, and then we'll talk about it."

"I'll go to the hotel first. You stay here and see what's going on with Qin Shi and how he ended up here."

After saying that, he walked towards the car parked outside.

Sun Huilan stood there, clutching her handbag tightly, her expression shifting between light and shadow.

She knew that Zhou Jianye valued his career highly. They had been married for decades, and while she wouldn't say she understood Zhou Jianye 100%, she understood him at least 80%.

In the past, Zhou Jianye would have been furious to hear such detrimental news to his company. Given his attitude towards Zhou Yi at the hospital just now, he wouldn't have been so calm.

But right now, he's just this calm.

There wasn't a trace of anger.

This is so unlike him.

why?

What went wrong?

The sun was very strong, and even though it was almost five o'clock and the sun was about to set, the heat still lingered over the city.

At this moment, on the highway from Shancheng back to Yu'an County.

A black Mercedes was speeding by.

The car windows were tightly closed, and not a single wisp of heat could get in.

The air conditioning is on inside, and a chill permeates the air.

In the back seat of the car, Wenren Chen held his phone and listened to the voice coming from the other end: "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later..."

The voice coming from the phone was a completely emotionless, mechanical voice.

He listened to the sound, picked up his phone and hung up, then dialed another number.

Bona Hotel.

Aunt Dong stayed with the little one in the room. The little one was sleeping peacefully on the bed and showed no sign of waking up.

Aunt Dong sat in a chair in front of the bed, wearing glasses and reading a book on her phone, learning how to take care of children.

Suddenly, the learning interface on the phone disappeared in an instant, and an incoming call appeared in the middle of the screen.

Aunt Dong looked at the incoming call and said the word "sir".

She paused, looked at the little one sleeping peacefully on the bed, then took her phone and quietly left the bedroom. She answered the call only after walking a little further away: "Sir."

Even after they came out, Aunt Dong didn't dare to raise her voice, because the young master was very sensitive.

Especially when Miss Zhou isn't around.

Wenren Chen crossed his legs, leaned back in his chair, and listened to the rhythmic beeping of his phone.

After four beeps, Aunt Dong's voice came through. He opened his mouth and asked, "Aunt Dong, what time did Zhou Yi leave the hotel this afternoon?"

The deep, magnetic voice entered my ears, sounding no different from usual; I couldn't detect any difference.

So, although the question was a bit strange, Aunt Dong didn't think much of it and replied, "It was around three o'clock in the afternoon."

"After we finished talking on the phone at noon, Miss Zhou called, and then she returned shortly after. Miss Zhou played with the young master at the hotel for more than two hours, and left the hotel after the young master fell asleep."

After saying that, Aunt Dong remembered something and said, "Oh, right, Miss Zhou said that she was going to go to the hospital to see her grandmother after the young master fell asleep in the afternoon, but Miss Zhou's brother came, and then she was going to go with her brother to buy surveillance cameras."

"Ms. Zhou said that her third aunt's chickens seemed to have been stolen and that they needed to install surveillance cameras. She said that she and her brother went to buy the cameras and then she went to the hospital to see her grandmother. She said she would probably be back a little late tonight and that she was going to treat her brother to dinner."

Aunt Dong told Wenren Chen exactly what Zhou Yi had told her.

Wenren Chen listened to the detailed report on his phone without interrupting Aunt Dong.

After Aunt Dong finished speaking, he asked, "Since she left, has she called you once?"

Aunt Dong immediately said, "We don't have that."

"Only now..."

Aunt Dong paused, then took out her phone to check the time, before continuing, "It's not even five o'clock yet. Miss Zhou said she'll probably be back after dinner, and it's still early before dinner time. Besides, the young master isn't crying; he's sleeping. Miss Zhou won't call at this hour."

Did you call Zhou Yi?

Aunt Dong was taken aback, then said, "No."

"Miss Zhou left after the young master fell asleep. He is still asleep now, without crying or making a fuss, so I haven't called Miss Zhou."

After saying that, Aunt Dong frowned slightly and asked with some concern, "Sir, has something happened?"

The gentleman's questions were very strange, and Aunt Dong had a feeling that something was wrong.

"Yes, Zhou Yi's father and stepmother went to the hospital and beat her. Grandma's condition is very bad now."

Wenren Chen actually answered Aunt Dong's question.

Aunt Dong exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my God!"

"How could this be?"

Aunt Dong was so surprised that her voice rose loudly.

Soon after, she looked towards the bedroom, lowered her head, covered her mouth, went to the bathroom, closed the door, and said, "Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

The master wouldn't have said these things to her without a reason; he must have given her instructions.

Wenren Chen watched the scenery rushing past the windshield ahead. Because of the car's excessive speed, these normally pleasant views were being torn apart and distorted.

It's unrecognizable from its original appearance.

Open your lips.
