Fated to My Billionaire Husband

“Miss, the target has been taken care of cleanly. But we think the money was too little, could you give us a little more?”

“I have given you plenty already, don’t be so greedy!”

“We helped you take a life, two million isn’t enough. We demand at least two million more, otherwise…”

Xu Man asked gloomily, “What do you plan to do?”

“We’ll let the public know that this was a conspiracy, not a simple case of suicide!”

Xu Man had dealt with all kinds of people.

She wasn’t intimidated by the duo, she cracked a cold smile and said, “Be smart about this. If the cat gets out of the bag, the police will catch you guys first. As for me, do you know what I look like? You have no idea who I am, so stop trying to threaten me!”

“Our conversation has been recorded. The police can find you by your voice.”

“How naïve!” Xu Man laughed coldly again, “My phone has a voice changer installed, the voice you hear is not mine at all!”

Having said that, Xu Man hung up, switched off her phone, deciding to destroy it later.

Meanwhile, in a villa in the outskirts of D City, Ruan Tianling’s people had determined Xu Man’s location based on the signal from her phone.

That place was the Yan family’s villa!

All the evidence pointed to Yan Yue as the culprit behind it all.

Ruan Tianling still didn’t want to believe that Yan Yue was the killer, but with all the evidence laid out in front of him, how could he explain it?

***************

Jian Yufei had been lying in bed for three days. The swelling on her face had reduced, but it still bore large patches of bruises, looking even more shockingly tragic.

Ruan Tianling found a new place to stay, bringing her out from the hospital to this new location for healing.

He also found a reliable housekeeper to take care of her, planning to take her back to A City once her injuries healed.

Jian Yufei arrived at this new place, not interested in observing her surroundings, just lying on the bed tiredly.

Ruan Tianling was on the phone constantly during these days. She knew he was investigating who was behind the attack.

But it had been several days, and it seemed like there had been no progress at all.

Ruan Tianling entered the room with a cup of milk, only to see her quietly staring out the window.

He was worried her mind was running wild, aggravating her depression. He sat down next to her, put the milk down, and propped her body up.

“Don’t worry, no one will hurt you again.”

Jian Yufei leaned against the headboard, looking at him calmly, “Have you found out who wants to kill me?”

“No.”

His eyes didn’t avoid her probing gaze, but she couldn’t read anything from his expression.

“I bet it was Yan Yue who did it. What do you think?” Jian Yufei asked lightly.

Ruan Tianling picked up the milk and handed it to her, “Drink this.”

“I said, it must be Yan Yue who did it. What do you think?” She did not reach for the milk, instead, asking him again.

“I said, drink this.”

“I asked you first.” Jian Yufei clashed with him, the more he evaded the question, the more she suspected he was hiding something.
