Chapter 330 - Leave Cruel-heartedly (2)
Su Jianan and Jiang Shaokai had escaped from the bodyguards, but they had not escaped from the media.
Since the news of them entering and exiting the hotel had been released last time, Jiang Shaokai’s every move had become the focus of the media’s attention.
However, recently Jiang Shaokai only commuted between the police station and his apartment, so there was no reporting value, and coupled with the Jiang family’s background, the media did not involve him in the matter between Lu Boyan and Su Jianan.
Today, the reporters surrounded the hospital to report on Han Ruoxi’s visit to Lu Boyan. Getting a photo of Su Jianan and Jiang Shaokai was purely unexpected.
After a while, the reporters and the cameras quickly surrounded Su Jianan and Jiang Shaokai, and threw questions at them like cannonballs.
“Miss Su, did you come to the hospital to visit Mr. Lu? But why did the rumors say that you have broken it off?”
“Mr. Jiang, are you here to accompany Miss Su? What is the injury on your face?”
“Miss Su, Mr. Jiang…”
The reporters were afraid of missing something, and the crowd was getting tighter. The cameras and the antennas inevitably hurt Su Jianan, so Jiang Shaokai guarded her with a slender arm and indicated to her that she should not be afraid.
The people he brought should be coming out soon.
In the media’s view, Jiang Shaokai was very meticulous about Su Jianan. The shutters of the cameras were pressed madly, as they just could not wait to take photos from all angles and then make a big fuss.
Within a minute, the well-trained soldiers came out of the hospital. With their help, Jiang Shaokai and Su Jianan drove away.
Su Jianan breathed a sigh of relief, but before she took another one, the ringing of the mobile phone was heard again.
Jiang Shaokai slowed down and signaled for Su Jianan to answer the phone.
“Why didn’t you answer the phone just now?” There was no obvious emotion in Kang Ruicheng’s tone, but she could still hear the snake-like coldness. “You don’t dare to pick it up?”
In order to get something from Kang Ruicheng, Su Jianan pretended to pause as if she were guilty, and she did not answer but asked, “Why didn’t I dare to pick up your call? Kang Ruicheng, you should not overestimate yourself.”
“With Lu Boyan, do you dare to answer my phone call?” Kang Ruicheng smiled coldly. “Su Jianan, it seems that I really look down on you.”
Su Jianan’s back was suddenly stiff. “How do you know that I was with Lu Boyan?”
Yesterday, she sent Lu Boyan to the hospital in the middle of the night. Nobody knew except for Shen Yuechuan and the doctor and nurses who accompanied the car.
The doctors and nurses accompanying the car were all people from the hospital. It was impossible that they would disclose the news, not to mention Shen Yuechuan.
Her guess was really right!
“If you dare to disobey me, I will know about it sooner or later…” Kang Ruicheng avoided the question.
Su Jianan didn’t fall for that so easily. She interrupted Kang Ruicheng coldly. “Or let me tell you the answer—Han Ruoxi told you about that. You and Han Ruoxi not only know each other, but also have a cooperative relationship.”
After thinking about it, Su Jianan immediately understood. “You and Han Ruoxi both want to break me and Lu Boyan up, so you found her. You threatened me with the unseen past of Lu Boyan, and Han Ruoxi used the loan of Huinan Bank to threaten me, forcing me to agree to your request.”
After a long time of silence, the laughter of Kang Ruicheng came from her earpiece. “So this is what you want to make sure of? Oh, smarter than I thought.”
Su Jianan snorted, “You and Han Ruoxi are more stupid than I imagined!”
After that, Su Jianan hung up the phone and threw it back into the bag. She still frowned and didn’t have any joy after laughing at her opponent.
“Why are you still not happy after you already proved your answer?” Jiang Shaokai did not understand.
Su Jianan said, “I have to find a way to tell Boyan about this.”
“What are you afraid of?”
“Han Ruoxi has been close to Boyan in the past few years. She must know something about Lu Enterprises. I am worried that she will tell Kang Ruicheng.” After Su Jianan saw the information from Kang Ruicheng, she had already had a psychological shadow. She was afraid that there would suddenly be something that was unfavorable to Lu Boyan.
Jiang Shaokai thought for a moment and shook his head. “She shouldn’t. Think about it, if Han Ruoxi likes Lu Boyan, she must want him to be good. Even if she is really holding onto something about Lu Enterprises that can’t be disclosed, she won’t give it to Kang Ruicheng. At most, she’d threaten Lu Boyan with it.”
If Han Ruoxi really threatened Lu Boyan, Su Jianan was not afraid of that. She believed that Lu Boyan could solve it.
What she was afraid of was that Han Ruoxi had gone mad because of love and had lost her reason.
The hospital was not very far away from Su Yicheng’s apartment. After a while, Jiang Shaokai took Su Jianan to the apartment downstairs.
Su Jianan unfastened the seat belt. “Thank you.”
“Go up.” Jiang Shaokai smiled. “Right, I must warn you, from what I saw today, I don’t think that he will let you go easily, so you must be mentally prepared.”
Su Jianan looked down.
How could she not know? Lu Boyan would definitely come to see her after he was discharged from the hospital. At that time, he might actually take the opportunity to bring her back, whether she wanted that or not.
As for what to do at that time… she had no clue.
“Well, don’t think about it.” Jiang Shaokai tried to make Su Jianan feel at ease. “I have already discussed it with my mom. I promise you that as long as you don’t let Lu Boyan detect that there is something wrong, he would not come to you.”
“You—” Su Jianan looked at Jiang Shaokai with amazement, “how did you discuss it with your mother?”
Jiang Shaokai put on a mysterious smile. “It’s confidential! But I am not helping you for nothing, I have conditions.”
“What conditions?” Su Jianan really couldn’t think of one thing that Jiang Shaokai needed her to help with.
“There are two.” Jiang Shaokai said, “First, after all this is resolved, you have Lu Boyan help me find a trustworthy manager to help my dad take care of the company. The annual salary and dividends are all discussable, I just don’t want to listen to my dad talk about it all the time. He always wonders why he doesn’t feel like he actually has a son.”
This was very easy to do, Su Jianan nodded. “What’s the second?”
“Second,” Jiang Shaokai touched his chin, “after he finds out the truth, you need to prevent Lu Boyan from hitting me.”
Su Jianan laughed and patted Jiang Shaokai’s shoulder. “I will protect you.”
After that, she pushed the door open, waved to Jiang Shaokai, and went upstairs.
At this time, the gossip had blown up on the Internet.
The headline was just as Su Jianan had expected, that Han Ruoxi went to visit Lu Boyan. The title said that Lu Boyan and Han Ruoxi stayed in the ward for more than two hours, and they talked intimately. When they came out, Han Ruoxi looked so happy, which made people couldn’t help but imagine.
The commentary section of the news was harmonious, and everyone was giving their blessing to Han Ruoxi and Lu Boyan. Some people were moved and bluntly saying that it was so difficult for Han Ruoxi to be here after she had gone through so many troubles and finally got together with someone she liked.
After reading it, Su Jianan was really impressed by Han Ruoxi’s public relations team, and she also admired the reporters’ imaginations.
Following the headlines was the news of Su Jianan and Jiang Shaokai.
According to the report, the author witnessed Jiang Shaokai and Su Jianan coming out of the hospital. Jiang Shaokai cared for Su Jianan, but there were obvious wounds on his face.
They speculated that the injury on Jiang Shaokai’s face was caused by Lu Boyan because Su Jianan had had an affair.
The commentary section of this news was not so harmonious, and all the unspeakable words were used on Su Jianan. Some people even said that Jiang Shaokai deserved it, and he should be beaten for having no taste in women and picking Su Jianan.
Su Jianan shut down the tablet because she thought that she wouldn’t get upset if she didn’t read it. She then ate the soup brought by the auntie, and went back to the room to rest.
Last night, in order to take care of Lu Boyan, she did not sleep well, and after her pregnancy, she needed more sleep than before, so it was not difficult to fall asleep. She even slept until 5:00 p.m.
She completely woke up because she was hungry. So she tidied her hair casually and walked out of the room. Then she found that Su Yicheng had returned and was preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Su Jianan walked in to help Su Yicheng pick up the food, thinking about how to ask about Lu Boyan.
“Don’t worry, I heard from Shen Yuechuan that he is fine, and he can leave the hospital after two days of rest.” Su Yicheng glanced at Su Jianan’s embarrassment and handed her a small bowl. “Try the soup.”
Su Jianan blew on then ate the soup. “It’s good.”
Su Yicheng turned off the gas and put the soup down to prepare for cooking. He asked, “How do you know that he was hospitalized?” He went to the company directly after eating breakfast at the clubhouse this morning, so he didn’t know that Su Jianan was not at home like him last night.
Su Jianan told Su Yicheng about yesterday’s incident. After listening to it, Su Yicheng shook his head helplessly. “Shaokai was right, the softer you are, the stronger Boyan will be. When you can’t stand up to him, you will expose yourself.”
“What should I do?” Su Jianan asked for help. “I can’t let him know now.”
“Didn’t you just say that Shaokai told you that he and Mrs. Jiang had a good discussion?” Su Yicheng did not answer but asked.
“Yeah,” Su Jianan nodded, “but he wouldn’t tell me what it was about.”
Su Yicheng almost guessed it and smiled. “You don’t have to think about it, just do as he says.”
After dinner, Su Jianan watched TV on the sofa. Su Yicheng was sitting next to her, using a laptop to deal with a little work and chatting with her from time to time.
When it was nearly 10 o’clock, Su Yicheng urged Su Jianan to go to sleep. Since Su Jianan became pregnant, he did not allow her to go to sleep after 10 o’clock. Even if Su Jianan was not sleepy, he also asked her to return to the room because he knew that Su Jianan could fall asleep while if she were to lay down.
Su Jianan also obeyed. First, she went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, but she did not expect to have sudden nausea, and all the things eaten at dinner were spat out.
Su Yicheng heard the sound and ran into the bathroom. From the mirror, he saw that Su Jianan’s face was completely white. He took a glass of water and gave it to her, patted her back, and asked, “Feeling terrible?”
Su Jianan shook her head and sipped the cup of warm water and went back to the room to sleep.
Su Yicheng was still worried so he followed her into the room. She squeezed out a smile, “This is called morning sickness, it is normal. You just go to mind your business and go to bed early; I am going to bed.”
Su Yicheng tucked Su Jianan in. “Call me if you need anything.”
Su Jianan nodded and received a message from Jiang Shaokai after Su Yicheng went out: “7:00 Friday night, Jiangyuan Hotel, dinner with Captain Yan.”
For dinner, she had to not avoid jeering and drinking.
Su Jianan originally wanted to wait for the situation to stabilize and then arrange this, but he also remembered the words of Su Yicheng: “Do as he says.”
She typed “good” in the reply column and clicked “Send”.
