The CEO's Woman

Chapter 216 Eureka

Chapter 216 Eureka

"Master, Fu Xiaolan failed. She was on her way out of the country, so I had to do plan B. However..." Li Qiang’s face immediately turned into a scowl when he heard the words on the other side of the call.

"However what?" Hi hissed.

"We were not able to kill Fu Xiaolan. She did not take the route that we prepared for her. We are still..."

"STUPID! Find her! We need to eliminate her. I don’t want her ruining my plans in the future." He gritted his teeth in annoyance. That Jiang Yue must be really smart for causing failure towards Fu Xiaolan’s plans.

"Yes, Master. How about the Fu Family?"

"What about them?"

"The current Fu patriarch and Zhao Feiyan are snooping around. Trying to see who is causing trouble for the Fu Conglomerates branches abroad. I fear that they will find out about our intentions to buy out some of the minority shareholders."

Li Qiang closed his eyes and started to massage his temples. "Leave them for now. Focus on looking for Fu Xiaolan. She and her mother is a loose end. We need them gone."

"Understood."

Then Li Qiang cut the call without saying anything.

He leaned back into his chair. His eyes still close.

"Qiang?" Li Qiang instantly opened his eyes and jolted up when he heard Wang Ruo’s sweet voice. He saw Wang Ruo standing at the door, sweetly smiling towards him."I didn’t know that you were asleep. I’m sorry to disturb you."

"Oh no... I was just thinking. Come..." he gestured Wang Ruo to come sit across his desk. "Are you done with your painting?"

"Mostly." Wang Ruo answered as she lowered her head. "I... I wanted to meet our daughter." she declared after she took her seat.

Her words instantly surprised Li Qiang.

"I mean... It’s been a while since I woke up and I... I haven’t met her yet... So I... If it’s not okay... then I... I understand." Wang Ruo’s voice started to break, her gaze still lower.

"No... it’s not like that... It’s just that our Mian Mian is still busy with a film. How about this... I will ask her to come to visit us once she is done filming? What do you think?" Li Qiang said.

"Really?" Wang Ruo’s sullen state instantly brightened when she heard Li Qiang’s voice.

"Really," he answered, smiling as he walked towards her and pulled her into a hug. "Don’t worry. I’m sure she will be happy to see you. She missed you a lot."

In response, Wang Ruo just nodded, her gaze unfathomable. Then an unrecognizable glint flashed into her eyes. As her lips slowly turn into a chilling smile.

....

After Jiang Yue and Fu Jin went to the police station for Fu Jin’s statement, the duo then went to the Fu Conglomerate to concentrate on Fu Xiaolan’s matter.

"I know it’s stupid for me to act like this but there was something in the way she said it... like... I can’t explain... It makes me... unsettled." Jiang Yue said as she accepted the cup of tea that Fu Jin made for her.

In response, Fu Jin just let out a sigh and stared at his wife. Maybe it’s time for them to talk.

Seeing Fu Jin’s reaction, Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at her husband. "You know something." She stated. "You are hiding something from me. What is it?"

However, before Fu Jin can utter a word, the door to Fu Jin’s room was abruptly open revealing a panting Wang Minghua. "Fu Xiaolan’s mother died."

In spite of the sudden disturbance, Jiang Yue did not leave her gaze towards Fu Jin, making the latter uncomfortable. "I will tell you later. I promise." Fu Jin said before he turned towards Wang Minghua. "What happen?"

"I just got the call. The police said she killed herself." Wang Minghua answered, ignoring the unusual atmosphere between Jiang Yu and Fu Jin,

"So someone wanted to silence her." Fu Jin stated. There is no way that Zhang Liyin would commit suicide.

"How about Fu Xiaolan? Did you find her?" Wang Minghua asked.

In response, Fu Jin shook his head.

"Bei Ye found at least three flights under her name. All of which depart without her." Jiang Yue said. "She already planned to leave even before she met me."

"Do you think she..."

"No. I don’t think she killed her mother." Fu Jin interrupted Wang Minghua. "She arranged this so her parents could suffer. She would not want to kill her now. That’s too easy."

"I agree. Someone must have wanted to avoid any further complications." Jiang Yue added. This time she is sure that Fu Xiaolan was telling the truth. Someone else was behind this.

Someone was acting god and is playing everything within his or her palm.

The thought of Fu Xiaolan’s words instantly replayed their whole conversation in Jiang Yue’s mind.

She laid out everything that had happened since this started.

Everything started with Fu Xiaolan telling someone she is pregnant with Wang Minghua’s child. Then the attacks, someone attempted to seduce Fu Jin, the problems in Fu Jin’s publishing company, then Grandfather Fu’s birthday which ended in Fu Zouyi’s poisoning, issues against Fu Jin then Fu Honglie’s supposed death followed by them figuring out it was Fu Xiaolan. This was followed by Fu Xiaolan’s accusations towards Fu Jin and the Fu Conglomerate’s statement. Then there was the discovery that Fu Honglie was alive and was kept by his own son so she could torture him.

Of course, the highlight would be Jiang Yue’s meeting with Fu Xiaolan which led to the rescue of Fu Honglie who was still in a coma. Then Zhang Liyin went to the police to confess, and Fu Xiaolan decided to leave the county. And now Zhang Liyin’s death.

Fu Xiaolan’s words continued to echo inside Jiang Yue’s mind as her eyes suddenly widened. Eureka, she thought.

She believed she just found out the true purpose of the person behind all this.
