Qiao Nian... Is Back Today?
At the same time, Jiang Zongnan had already received the news that Tang Wanru was temporarily detained at the police station.
He paused the company meeting and rushed home. He first made a call.
"…Captain Bo, she doesn’t know anything. There must be a misunderstanding."
The person on the other end of the call said something.
Jiang Zongnan’s expression instantly became ugly, and he did not speak for a long time. In the end, he asked dejectedly, "Really, is there no other way?"
A minute later.
Jiang Zongnan sighed. "I know. Sorry to trouble you."
He immediately hung up and walked into the living room.
Jiang Yao and Jiang Li were both there.
The atmosphere in the villa was heavy.
Jiang Yao and Jiang Li rushed back after receiving Jiang Zongnan’s call. Jiang Li also pushed aside a magazine shoot and did not even rest as he rushed over.action
The two of them did not speak after returning and just sat on the sofa.
As Jiang Zongnan arrived, they stood up at the same time.
Jiang Yao asked anxiously, "Dad, how is it?"
Jiang Li asked, "What did Uncle Bo say?"
"Captain Bo said that she’s an important witness. The police won’t let her go until they find Xianrou."
Jiang Zongnan walked to the water dispenser and took a glass of water, but he could not drink it for a long time. "… Your mother probably won’t be back tonight."
Jiang Yao took a deep breath and frowned. "I’ll call a friend to ask for help."
"Stop." Jiang Li’s handsome face looked more mature and was no longer as impetuous as before.
He looked at Jiang Yao and said coldly, "Who can you ask for help? Dad must have asked everyone you can find. If there was a way, he would have bailed her out long ago! Do you need to look for them?"
Jiang Zongnan was silent.
On the way back from the company, he had already made a call, wanting to bail Tang Wanru out first. However, the situation was more serious than he had imagined.
Jiang Xianrou ran away with Tang Wanru around, so she was also suspected.
With the Jiang Family’s status in Beijing, logically speaking, they could temporarily vouch for her, but… this matter involved the Ye family.
Jiang Zongnan’s face was not enough.
No one in Beijing dared to offend the Ye family!
Tang Wanru was destined to spend the night at the police station.
If it was in the past, Jiang Yao would have gone to the police station with a lawyer to go through the bail procedure. But he did not act impulsively this time.
"Qiao Nian is coming back today, right? She…" Jiang Yao just started…
Jiang Li reacted quickly. "Don’t drag her into this! What does Jiang Xianrou’s trouble have to do with Nian Nian? That’s enough!"
Jiang Yao was at a loss for words. He paused and then said awkwardly, "I didn’t mean that. I just remember that she plays the computer very well, so I wanted to ask her for help."
In the past, he might have called Qiao Nian boldly. Now that Jiang Yao had experienced some things and was much more mature, he knew well that Qiao Nian could not ignore him.
Moreover, he was too ashamed to make this call.
It was not like Jiang Li had misunderstood and thought that he would plead with Qiao Nian to bail her out.
Jiang Li frowned and said impatiently, "This has nothing to do with Nian Nian. Don’t involve her. Things wouldn’t have come to this point if Mom didn’t go to the prison to see Xianrou." Jiang Li waved his hand, frustrated. "To put it bluntly, Xianrou didn’t even think about what responsibility Mom would have to bear before she ran away… She’s as selfish as ever. She only cares about herself!"
