Jiang Siyu frowned, her smile fading slightly. Looking at Jiang Nuan’s expression, she wasn’t as easy to talk to as she had imagined.
“Madam, I am sincerely asking for your help.” Jiang Siyun’s expression also became serious.
Mu Jiuchen, a man like a god, was someone no woman would miss.
She had been too eager to show her capabilities before, and it had backfired.
All for the sake of getting Mu Jiuchen to look at her more.
Jiang Nuan looked at her apologetically, “I’m sorry, Miss Jiang, I can’t help you with this. I never ask about Mu Jiuchen’s business matters. Our cooperation is handled solely by him, and I have never interfered.”
Regarding business matters, Mu Jiuchen made his own decisions.
If cooperation was possible, he would sign without hesitation.
If he had reservations, he wouldn't sign.
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Siyu’s eyes. Jiang Nuan actually refused her.
If a woman loved her husband, shouldn’t she constantly strive for him?
Jiang Nuan’s detached attitude truly surprised her.
Jiang Nuan said, “If Miss Jiang has nothing else, I will take my leave.”
Jiang Siyu asked very seriously, “Jiang Nuan, you don’t love Mu Jiuchen, do you?”
Jiang Nuan’s steps paused slightly. She looked at her with cold eyes, “Oh? You don’t love him. By what standard do you judge that I don’t love him?”
“If you loved him, wouldn’t you fight for him in the face of profit?” Jiang Siyu’s emotions were a bit agitated.
A hint of confusion flickered in Jiang Nuan’s eyes. What a peculiar line of thought he had.
Was this an attempt to provoke her into helping by refusing?
“Mu Jiuchen doesn’t lack that little bit of money, nor does he lack cooperation with your Jiang family. If he doesn’t want to cooperate with you, he naturally has his reasons.”
After speaking, Jiang Nuan left.
Jiang Siyu walked a few steps forward, then finally stopped.
She bit her lower lip, her face shadowed as she looked at Jiang Nuan’s retreating back.
If Jiang Nuan didn’t help her, then truly no one else could.
What to do?
Her gaze shifted slightly, and she had a plan.
Jiang Nuan, I will definitely make you help me.
…
Jiang Nuan returned to the private room. Mu Jiuchen and the children had just come out.
Mu Jiuchen smiled and took her hand, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital.”
“Mm!” Jiang Nuan didn’t refuse.
She took him and the children to the hospital.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Jiang Nuan went up alone.
Han Yixuan had been waiting outside the ward.
When Jiang Nuan arrived, he was just eating from a bento box.
Jiang Nuan: “…”
“I should have brought you something good to eat.” Jiang Nuan smiled at him.
Looking at the braised pork in his bowl, his favorite was braised pork with potatoes.
The lunchbox was filled with braised pork, which looked very appetizing.
Han Yixuan ate a piece of braised pork before saying, “Remember to bring me some next time. You know, I have very little time to eat.”
He truly had very little time, even for eating.
Jiang Nuan nodded, looking at him, “Mm! I’ll remember to bring it next time.”
Han Yixuan pointed at the ward, “Nuan Nuan, go in and take a look. She’s been staring blankly as soon as she woke up, and she vomits whenever she sees a man.”
Jiang Nuan: “!!”
She pushed the door open. The girl was wearing a white hospital gown, her eyes vacant as she gazed out the window.
Her face was so pale it had no color.
Jiang Nuan pushed the door open, but she showed no reaction.
Jiang Nuan walked to her side and looked at the not-so-beautiful scenery outside the window. Below was an alley behind the hospital, a street food alley. It was dusk, and people were still coming and going, their footsteps hurried.
There were also those who, wrapped in exhaustion, would sit down to eat a bowl of rice noodles, or a plate of fried rice, and continue their busy lives.
Places filled with such everyday life were actually the most real.
“Do you like that kind of life too?” Jiang Nuan asked slowly.
She herself had grown up in such a bustling marketplace.
In this world, there were still more good people than bad.
The girl finally noticed Jiang Nuan’s presence. She slowly withdrew her gaze and looked at the ethereal and beautiful Jiang Nuan.
“Who are you?” Her voice was so hoarse that even she was startled.
Jiang Nuan looked at her and said, “I am the one who snatched you back from the clutches of death!”
The girl was slightly stunned.
“You saved me?” In her memory, a woman’s voice seemed very angry.
“Mm! To save you, we disrupted our plan. We were supposed to catch them all at once, but the person in charge escaped.”
Jiang Nuan turned to her, “Were you willing, or were you forced?”
The girl let out a cold laugh, saying bitterly, “Would anyone be willing to do this kind of thing? I was tricked into coming by my relatives. There were several other girls in the same situation as me. Because our families needed money, we were tricked into coming here by them. After training, we would be locked in a room for filming, then uploaded to a special software online…”
The girl began to weep, covering her face.
“It’s so disgusting, truly so disgusting. I kept trying to escape, but I was always caught and brought back. They would use their most disgusting parts on me, stuff them into my mouth, they didn’t treat me like a human at all… woo woo woo…”
The girl sobbed uncontrollably.
Jiang Nuan remained silent, letting her vent her emotions.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Nuan shifted her position.
The girl gradually stopped crying.
Jiang Nuan looked at her, and she started crying again.
Jiang Nuan: “…”
“How about I go out, and you can have some quiet time?” Jiang Nuan said slowly, her calm voice betraying no emotion.
The girl shook her head slightly, “No need, I’m much better now.”
Jiang Nuan then sat on a nearby stool and looked at her, asking, “Then can you answer a few questions for me?”
“Speak.”
Jiang Nuan: “How do you attract customers?”
The girl shook her head, “I don’t know about that. Customers are brought by special personnel, and we only need to serve them well. After each time, we can get a few thousand yuan as a commission.”
“Do you know how this gang is divided?” Jiang Nuan asked again.
The girl continued to shake her head, “I don’t know either. We have those who are willing and those who are unwilling, as well as those who were tricked. Seeing the money, many people were tempted and willingly did it, but I didn’t want to.”
“I only realized something was wrong and wanted to escape, but each time I was caught and brought back.
This time, I was prepared to die. If they caught me again, I would jump off the building to commit suicide.
My heart was already not good. The last time, when I was almost unable to bear it, I deliberately faked fainting. While they weren’t paying attention, I escaped. The only way down the entire building was from the fifth floor, which I overheard them talking about.”
“But halfway down, I fainted. I don’t remember what happened after that. When I woke up, I was here.”
Jiang Nuan frowned. She couldn’t find any useful information.
Moreover, Hong Bin was not afraid of investigation. He had Ying Tang behind him, which was a special department, and even they dared not easily provoke Ying Tang.
“Mm! You rest your injuries here, I’ll be going now.”
Jiang Nuan stood up and said.
Seeing Jiang Nuan about to leave, the girl suddenly remembered something, “Wait, miss, I just remembered something else, it might be useful to you.”
