Chapter 388: 253 Defiant till Death, Wanwan Returns (3 more Chapters)

Jiang Family

Everyone entered the room, and Fan Mingyu invited everyone to sit down. Today was a day of mourning, so

everyone dressed in black, adding to the particularly gloomy atmosphere.

"That... | just heard Qi Zeyan mention something about a younger sister having an accident, was it Tang Wan?"

Jiang Zhaolin was completely unaware and only realized after asking that his daughter sitting next to him

seemed to shake violently.

"Yes, she was visiting the tomb of the eldest, and she accidentally slipped down the mountain," the elderly lady

said, having just sipped her tea. The steam fogged up her glasses, and as she was wiping them, she spoke

nonchalantly.

"Slipped down?" Jiang Zhaolin raised an eyebrow, "Is she okay?"

"Unconscious," the elderly lady answered, putting on her glasses and glancing at the father and daughter sitting

on the loveseat.

People with a guilty conscience can interpret a thousand meanings from an unintentional glance from someone

else. Jiang Shuyan forced herself to appear calm and turned her head to look at Jiang Zhaolin, "Dad, brother's

plane should have landed..."

"No worries, he’s not a child. He's already in Beijing, how could he not find his way home?" Today was a special

day, and the elder lady’s momentary soft heart meant that past grievances might be forgiven.

He coughed lightly and looked at the elderly lady, "Unconscious? Injured? How could she slip down the mountain

just like that? So careless."

The mountain path was not very steep; otherwise, the elderly lady at her age wouldn't have been able to climb it

at all.

Fan Mingyu handed an ice pack to Jiang Chengsi, "Put this on your face; look how swollen it is."

"Thank you."

But she completely ignored Jiang Shuyan, whose cheek was also swollen and bruised.

"l also find it strange, maybe this child was just too careless," the elder lady murmured, squinting her eyes and

sipping her hot tea again.

"Not awake?" Jiang Zhaolin felt the atmosphere was off. Tang Wan was unconscious, and yet the Jiang family

members were still here; why weren't they worried?

Jiang Chengsi applied the ice pack to his face; the cold mixed with heat made him inhale sharply, drawing

everyone's attention to him. He just smiled, "If the younger sister wakes up, I'm afraid speople won't be

able to sit still right? Is that right, Jiang Shuyan?"

The mention of Jiang Shuyan made her shudder, her palms and back drenched in cold sweat.

"What are you insinuating again with that tone?" Jiang Zhaolin frowned, his eyes filled with fierceness.

"Why not ask Jiang Shuyan? She went to the airport to pick someone up, but why did she still have her suitcase

with her? Did something wrong and planning to flee?"

"I didn’t!" Jiang Shuyan defensively retorted.

"If you did nothing wrong, why did you speed up when I chased your car, asking you to stop? What were you

afraid of? Actually speeding on the road. If you had really hit someone, caused an accident, | doubt even a

hundred deaths could redeem you."

"If I wasn’t guilty, why would | speed up when | called you? Even if our relationship is strained, it’s not like |

would assault you on the roadside. If | hadn't driven up and forced your car to stop, you wouldn’t have planned

to stop at all!"

"I didn’t!" Remembering the perilous moment of the car crash, Jiang Shuyan’s nerves tensed up instantly. The

feeling of nearly dying was enough to make her lose control whenever she thought of it.

Jiang Chengsi took out his phone, played a recording.

The first sound to hit everyone's ears was a loud crash, followed by piercing static, assaulting the eardrums, then

silence before voices emerged...

"Is Tang Wan'’s accident related to you?"

"Did you push her down?"

"Was it you!"

Jiang Chengsi, already a sinister figure, suddenly becfierce with his relentless questioning. Jiang Shuyan,

agitated, jumped up from the sofa and reached to snatch his phone.

"It wasn't me, | never saw her, it has nothing to do with me," her face contorted in a ferocious and frenzied

expression.

Jiang Shuyan’s pupils dilated sharply. She snatched his phone and smashed it on the tiled floor, the screen

instantly shattered on impact.
