Chapter 350 I know propriety
On the bustling commercial street, the modern building of the Four Seasons Hotel stands tall, with people coming and going at the door like a tide.
Looking from afar, you can see crowds of people and it is very lively. Even the air around seems to be infected by the lively atmosphere and becomes particularly active.
Wu Lan sat quietly in the private room, with soft light shining on her. She was listening attentively to Mu Xiaoji's story about Jiang Chengyu's stay in Kuncheng. Mu Xiaoji had a calm face, but a hint of worry was revealed in his eyes.
"After Little Devil and Luo Jinxi came to Kuncheng to perform surgery on Song Wenxuan, he suddenly became a different person when he returned." Mu Xiaoji paused, as if choosing his words.
Wu Lan understood in her heart, but pretended to be calm, frowned slightly and asked: "A different person? How do you feel he has changed?"
Mu Xiaoji uttered a few words concisely: "Be cautious and careful."
Wu Lan repeated doubtfully, "Be cautious?"
"Yes! I know that Mother Mu cannot accept our relationship and has been ostracizing him. I also know that he has suffered a lot of grievances."
Mu Xiaoji sighed, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "But, the most puzzling thing is that he suffers from sleepwalking."
Wu Lan couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "Sleepwalking? How could he be like this?"
"At first, I didn't understand his behavior, so I even gave him a special test for sleepwalking, but the result was nothing serious." Mu Xiaoji said, frowning and looking a little confused.
Wu Lan became more confused and asked, "Isn't it sleepwalking?"
Mu Xiaoji nodded and continued, “The test results are normal, but he still sleepwalks at night.
That night he said: "My dear, Daddy misses you too, but he has his own difficulties. You should be considerate of Daddy and listen to Mommy and Grandma.
If you keep making such noise every night, one day grandma and mom will dislike you!" Mu Xiaoji said this with a dull look in his eyes and a look of annoyance.
Wu Lan understood instantly. During the time in the hospital, Mu Xiaoji's son was indeed very fussy after he was born, and Jiang Chengyu held him in his arms to sleep every night.
Even during the days when he was unconscious, Choubao was at peace in his arms. Wu Lan did not say anything, but just looked at Mu Xiaoji quietly, waiting for him to continue.
"I was very impulsive at the time and didn't take his condition into consideration. I slapped him to wake him up. I asked him who Choubao was.
He begged me to explain, but I had lost my mind. I took out the marriage certificate and tore it up, and gave him back his freedom. "Mu Xiaoji's voice was trembling, and his face was full of self-blame.
"That night he was wearing pajamas and barefoot, smashing the glass and walking away. He didn't take anything, and I don't know how he got to Kuncheng. After just a few days of not seeing him, he was so thin that I could hardly recognize him."
Wu Lan murmured in her heart: "That's right, he loves that child so much, it would be strange if he didn't lose weight!"
Mu Xiaoji said excitedly: "Wu Lan, you must help me. I don't want to disturb his life. I just want to secretly take a look at him; see what kind of woman his lover is, and whether the little monster will be happy with her?"
Wu Lan had a strange expression on her face, and thought to herself: "Oh, so Mu Xiaoji always thought that Jiang Chengyu betrayed him, so he tore up the marriage certificate and set him free. Hey, Jiang Chengyu, Jiang Chengyu, what can I say about you!" She couldn't help but shook her head.
Mu Xiaoji said self-deprecatingly: "Wu Lan, do you think I'm funny?"
Wu Lan waved her hands and denied, "No, no, I think you should give Jiang Chengyu a chance to explain. If there are any misunderstandings in the future, at least you won't have too many regrets in your heart, right?"
When Mu Xiaoji heard similar words from Wu Lan and Luo Jinxi, he was touched and felt that he was too impulsive towards the little monster.
"Wu Lan, you also think I've been too harsh on the little monster, right?"
Wu Lan smiled bitterly and said, "No, I just think that it's not easy for the two of you to be together. You should trust each other more."
After hearing Wu Lan's words, Mu Xiaoji fell into deep thought, his thoughts circling in his mind as he recalled every moment he spent with Jiang Chengyu, feeling mixed emotions.
Wu Lan looked at Mu Xiaoji's sad face and felt heartbroken.
She reached out her hand and gently placed it on Mu Xiaoji's shoulder, and said in a gentle and soothing tone: "Okay, don't be sad. I'll help you find him, and you take him home and take good care of him."
When Mu Xiaoji heard Wu Lan's words, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. He didn't understand what Wu Lan meant.
He just stared at Wu Lan blankly. Wu Lan stood up, slowly picked up the bouquet of flowers, and with a soothing smile on her face, she turned and walked towards the door of the room.
Wu Lan walked out of the Four Seasons Hotel holding flowers in her hands, went straight to the parking space, and got into the majestic and solemn police car.
Inside the car, Wu Lan placed the flowers on the passenger seat beside her; she took out her cell phone, skillfully found Luo Jinxi's number and dialed it.
At this time, Luo Jinxi was patrolling the area under his jurisdiction as usual. His cell phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was Wu Lan.
With a hint of doubt on his face, he answered nonchalantly, "Hey, are you free today? Why did you think of calling me?"
Wu Lan stared at the flowers around her, stretched out her hand and gently fiddled with the petals, saying, "Did you know that Jiang Chengyu is in Kuncheng?"
Luo Jinxi suddenly stopped in his tracks, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he quickly asked, "Did you see him?"
"No, Mu Xiaoji saw him! He just invited me to dinner and gave me flowers."
Before Wu Lan finished speaking, Luo Jinxi couldn't help but scold her in injustice: "Mu Xiaoji, you bastard, you're chasing after someone else right after your divorce. He's really an out-and-out bastard."
Wu Lan burst out laughing and said angrily, "Luo Jinxi, how much do you care about Jiang Chengyu? You're so anxious to defend yourself before I can even finish what I'm saying."
Luo Jinxi said angrily: "Why? Isn't it? Jiang Chengyu was about to give him the organ, but he just forced him away and went to find a new love. Mu Xiaoji is not a bastard, so am I a bastard?"
Wu Lan smiled and explained, "He sent me flowers and invited me to dinner not to pursue me, but to ask me to help him find Jiang Chengyu."
"What? He forced people away and now he's pretending to look for them. Is he mentally ill?" Luo Jinxi said angrily.
Wu Lan continued, “He said he saw Jiang Chengyu lose a lot of weight in the shopping center square yesterday and thought he was not doing well;
He asked me to find Jiang Chengyu's address. He wanted to secretly see what kind of woman his lover was. He misunderstood that Jiang Chengyu had betrayed him, so he impulsively tore up the marriage certificate and set him free. "
Luo Jinxi muttered unhappily: "Misunderstanding? He should have never really believed him."
Wu Lan thought for a moment and asked, "I just hinted to him that I would help him find Jiang Chengyu and let him take him home and take good care of him. Tell me, what should I do?"
Luo Jinxi decisively replied: "Ignore him. He forgives me again and again, and hurts me again and again. Last time, Jiang Chengyu had already committed suicide by cutting his wrists because of his unreasonable behavior. If he didn't have supernatural powers this time, would he still be alive if he jumped out of the window?"
Wu Lan thought for a moment and replied: "Then I'll go find Jiang Chengyu and ask him what he thinks!"
Luo Jinxi's tone softened, and he said warmly, "When you find him, please take good care of him for me, and I'll treat you to a meal."
Wu Lan smiled jokingly and said, "Okay, I want to eat more wedding candy."
Luo Jinxi said shyly, "Eat your big head ghost, I'm dead!"
Wu Lan was driving, her eyes fixed on the road ahead, thoughts churning in her mind.
While analyzing the current situation, she said to herself, "Jiang Chengyu escaped under such complicated circumstances and came to Kuncheng. It is certain that he is worried about the child.
Mu Xiaoji also returned to Kuncheng. His father has certain influence in the local area. Normally, he would not use his security company to come to me.
Mr. Song must have been behind this. If the focus was on the child, Mr. Song should have known Jiang Chengyu's whereabouts.
Should I call Mr. Song first? If anything goes wrong, you don’t have to blame me in the future.”
The more Wu Lan thought about it, the more she felt that this matter had to be handled with caution, so she slowly parked the car on the side of the road.
She reached into her pocket, took out her cell phone, found Song Shijie's number in the address book, and gently pressed the dial button.
At this moment, Song Shijie was sitting in the office with a worried look on his face, slumped in his office chair, worried about his son's affairs and not knowing how to deal with them.
The silence was broken by an abrupt phone ring. He reached out and took out his phone and answered, "Hello."
Wu Lan quickly responded: "Mr. Song, I'm Wu Lan. Is it convenient for you to talk?"
"It's convenient. Please tell me." Song Shijie said with a hint of fatigue in his tone.
Wu Lan took a deep breath and said calmly, "Mr. Song, do you know where Jiang Chengyu is? To be exact, is he with that child?"
Song Shijie was slightly startled when he heard Wu Lan's words, and quickly sat up and asked, "What do you mean?"
Wu Lan hurriedly explained: "Mr. Song, please don't misunderstand. Xiaoji asked me to have lunch with him at noon and asked me to help him find Jiang Chengyu.
I think you should know where he is. The reason why Xiaoji did not use your security company must be that he has some distrust in you.
And I came to you because I wanted to meet Jiang Chengyu. I want to know what Jiang Chengyu himself thinks. "
Wu Lan paused for a moment, and seeing that Song Shijie hadn't responded for a long time, she continued, "Boss Song, there are some things we can't handle, so it's better to let them solve it themselves."
Song Shijie was silent for a moment, and finally said slowly: "The villa halfway up the mountain, you have to keep it secret."
Wu Lan was delighted and said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Song, I know my limits." After that, she hung up the phone, started the engine and drove towards the villa halfway up the mountain.
