The chief ex-husband won't let go of Yi Xiaobao

Lin Qingran looked at Zhao Xiang with a pained expression. She carefully unwrapped the bandage that Zhao Xiang had just carelessly wrapped around her wound, disinfected it, applied medicine, and then re-bandaged it.

Throughout the entire process, Zhao Xiang didn't utter a single sound.

Lin Qingran's eyes reddened slightly as she looked at the photo.

Seeing Lin Qingran's slightly red eyes, Zhao Xiang was deeply moved. She reached out and hugged Lin Qingran, patting her back and whispering.

"Why are you crying? I'm perfectly fine right here beside you."

Hearing Zhao Xiang's cheerful words and bright tone, Lin Qingran felt even more uneasy.

In her eyes, Zhao Xiang is the best person in the world and her best friend.

Lin Qingran truly hated Nie Jingchen for hurting her so badly back then.

at the same time......

Seeing Nie Jingchen's attention and affection for the imposter "Zhao Xiang" again today filled Lin Qingran with even more grief and indignation.

She finally understood why Nie Jingchen hadn't ended up with Zhao Xiang.

It was simply because Zhao Xiang wasn't his type at the time.

In Nie Jingchen's mind, only women with flowing long hair and elegant dresses can be considered true women.

Lin Qingran witnessed firsthand how much Zhao Xiang had suffered and endured since childhood for training and the mission she carried on her shoulders.

Seeing Zhao Xiang so badly injured yet remaining silent, bandaging herself up, is truly heartbreaking.

The imposter "Zhao Xiang" lived the life Zhao Xiang wanted.

But Zhao Xiang still lives in pain.

Simply because she is a member of the Zhao family.

From a young age, he has shouldered the responsibilities of his family and country.

Lin Qingran wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at Zhao Xiang with concern, and said in a deep voice.

“I have already dealt with the person impersonating you. She is very shrewd and cunning. Xiang’er, with your straightforward personality, you are definitely no match for her.”

Zhao Xiang listened to Lin Qingran's words and nodded slightly, then said in a low voice.

"I know."

All of the Zhao family's bodyguards have been replaced by this woman.

Moreover, when Zhao Xiang sneaked into the Zhao family through the old secret passage, she found that all the servants in the Zhao family had been replaced.

Furthermore, the entire area, from the yard to the house, is filled with cameras.

The old Zhao family house is so secure now that even a fly that flies inside wouldn't be able to get out.

Zhao Xiang was discovered as soon as she sneaked into the passageway.

If she hadn't reacted quickly, she probably would have been caught by now.

"The situation with the Zhao family is very complicated right now. My father doesn't seem to be home, and I don't know how my grandfather is doing."

"My mother... should be in the North City."

Lin Qingran paused for a moment upon hearing this, her gaze falling on Zhao Xiang, before speaking softly.

"I should be able to see Aunt Zhao. Should we start with her?"

Zhao Xiang nodded, her expression gradually becoming serious.

Lin Qingran looked at Zhao Xiang's pale face and then said softly.

"You should rest first."

Zhao Xiang shook her head and said in a deep voice.

“I’m worried they’ll track me all the way here. I… can’t sleep right now. If they come, I’ll be able to escape immediately.”

Lin Qingran frowned slightly, then reached out and patted Zhao Xiang's shoulder, speaking softly.

“This is Gu Moxuan’s territory. After seeing the person impersonating you, he has already guessed some things.”

Lin Qingran knew that Gu Moxuan would never sit idly by and wait for his death.

Therefore, once they realize that something is unusual, they will immediately take other actions.

Zhao Xiang's expression gradually turned serious.

She had never interacted with Gu Moxuan before and didn't know if he was someone she could trust.

At this moment, she looked at Lin Qingran with some hesitation.

Lin Qingran understood Zhao Xiang's thoughts perfectly well, and gently patted Zhao Xiang's shoulder to reassure her.

"Gu Moxuan is a person who can be trusted."

Zhao Xiang was relieved upon hearing this.

Since Lin Qingran said he was a trustworthy person, then he must be a trustworthy person.

However, the current situation of the Zhao family is still unclear, and the problems on the Zhao family's side require further consideration.

Therefore, Zhao Xiang did not want too many people to know that she had returned to Beicheng.

She didn't want too many people to know that the eldest daughter of the Zhao family currently inside the Zhao family was an imposter.

Just as they were discussing this topic, Lin Qingran's phone rang.

She took her phone out of her bag and saw that it was Gu Moxuan calling.

She paused for a moment, then exchanged a glance with Zhao Xiang before answering the call.

"what's up?"

Her voice was calm, and her tone was indifferent when she spoke.

"I've sent you a cell phone, it's the latest model the company has developed. If you give the phone to Ms. Zhao, the other party won't be able to track her."

Lin Qingran paused for a moment upon hearing the voice, then looked at Zhao Xiang.

Gu Moxuan had indeed guessed that the previous Zhao Xiang was an imposter.

"You've already delivered it?"

Lin Qingran took a deep breath, holding her breath as she spoke.

Gu Moxuan was indeed much more cunning than she had imagined.

"I have modified the escape route Miss Zhao took from the Zhao family's old residence. Miss Zhao, please stay home and recover from your injuries during this time, and do not wander around."

Zhao Xiang sat next to Lin Qingran, and she heard all of Gu Moxuan's cold and deep words.

Unexpectedly, Gu Moxuan already knew so much about it beforehand.

Even though they had no prior contact, he was able to guess so much just based on his intuition at the engagement banquet, paving the way for Zhao Xiang and taking precautions in advance.

Lin Qingran pursed her red lips and remained silent.

Suddenly, she realized that during this period of time, she was afraid that her every move had been under Gu Moxuan's surveillance.

Ever since the last car accident, Gu Moxuan has probably been setting up a huge scheme.

They are currently in the open, while the enemy is in the shadows.

Lin Qingran rubbed her temples and said softly.

"I understand. Thank you very much this time."

Hearing Lin Qingran's polite voice, Gu Moxuan frowned and then said in a deep voice.

"What I want is not your thanks."

"Qingran, what I want is for you to protect your own safety. During this time, it's best if you don't encounter any danger."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran paused, looked up, and saw Zhao Xiang looking at her with a very ambiguous attitude.

Lin Qingran suddenly felt a little embarrassed, then lowered her head and said softly.

"I will take good care of myself, Jinjin. Please take care of me."

After Lin Qingran finished speaking, she hurriedly hung up the phone.

Remembering that Gu Moxuan had sent something over, Lin Qingran quickly grabbed a towel and went to the door to wipe away the bloodstains Zhao Xiang had left behind.

A few minutes later, the person Gu Moxuan had sent to deliver the phone arrived.

Lin Qingran took a look and saw that it was Yan Sui, and breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Whether it was three years ago or three years later, Yan Sui was indeed the person Gu Moxuan trusted most.

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yan."

Lin Qingran took the phone that Yan Sui handed her, looked at Yan Sui, and had a faint smile on her face.

Yan Sui remained calm and composed, his attitude as respectful and at ease as before.

This was one of the few opportunities Lin Qingran had to see Yan Sui after returning to Beicheng.

Their previous meetings were all rather rushed.

Yan Sui handed the items to Lin Qingran, chatted with her politely for a few minutes, and then tactfully turned and left.

After returning to the room, Lin Qingran closed the door and handed the phone that Gu Moxuan had given her to Zhao Xiang.

Zhao Xiang instinctively checked it and only turned it on after confirming there were no problems.

"Your man is so thoughtful."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingran pursed her lips and said softly.

"When we understand each other, we can be quite in sync. It's just that we accumulated too many unpleasant things back then, and it still hurts to think about them sometimes."

Zhao Xiang paused for a moment after hearing Lin Qingran's words, and then said softly.

"Women are always more soft-hearted. But you and Gu Moxuan already have a child. If he really loves you, I think you can get back together with him."

"After all, it's really too difficult to get someone you like to like you back in the same way."

When Zhao Xiang said these words, a hint of melancholy and sadness flashed in her eyes.

Seeing this, Lin Qingran paused for a moment and asked in a low voice.

Do you still have feelings for... Nie Jingchen?
