Jiang Yu asked again, “Would that be convenient for you?”
“Yes.”
“Okay then.”
After hanging up, Jiang Xingyi said to his assistant, “Help me book a flight back to Beijing tomorrow afternoon.”
Xiao Fan was stunned. “Brother Xingyi, don’t you have to rehearse tomorrow morning?”
Jiang Xingyi said lazily, “Yes, that’s why I’m leaving at noon.”
Xiao Fan: “… if Brother Wu finds out, he won’t let you leave.”
“Then why don’t you just keep it a secret from him?”
Xiao Fan felt conflicted as he said, “Brother Xingyi, Brother Wu is watching you because you’ve been taking a lot of other trips. You’ve been in the capital for more than a week now, he’s already very unhappy.”
“You’ve only just returned, and it’s only a few days before the concert. Now you’re want to go back to the capital again… If he finds out, I won’t be able to bear the consequences.”
“He’s already emphasized that he wants me to keep an eye on you. I… I’m really in a tough spot…”
“If he asks, just tell him that I went to see my new arrangement teacher and that I need to change the song again.”
Jiang Xingyi curled his lips and said, “Don’t worry, he’s heard the theme song already. There won’t be any problems.”
…
On the other side, after Jiang Yu had hung up, she walked out from behind a wall.
She stood in front of an old gate that lead into a small neighborhood. Just a few minutes ago, she had seen Ji Churan walk in with her own eyes.
When she had seen the red mark on Ji Churan’s arm for the first time, Jiang Yu had thought that she had accidentally crashed into something.
The second time thought, the moment Jiang Zeyu had touched her, Ji Churan had gasped in pain. It was impossible for Jiang Yu to pretend that she didn’t see anything.
In school, Ji Churan spent most of her free time with her. After learning about her relationship with Ji Churan, even if the person didn’t know her strength, Jiang Yu had Jiang Zeyu protecting her from behind the scenes. No one in school would dare make a move on Ji Churan like that.
Otherwise, aren’t those people purposely looking for a beating?
Moreover, those red marks…
Didn’t seem like they were made by a hand. Instead, they looked like they had been made by a belt or a whip.
Jiang Yu could only think of one possibility: Ji Churan was being abused.
Jiang Yu knew that if she directly suggested walking home with Ji Churan, Ji Churan would definitely not agree.
She had already guessed what was happening to Ji Churan and it wouldn’t be her style to not take any action.
So, she followed Ji Churan to her neighborhood. After asking around, she easily found the floor where Ji Churan lived.
As Jiang Yu stood outside the door, she heard the sound of people hitting and scolding her.
“You money-wasting b*tch! What’s the point of having a daughter like you?”
“I get a heart attack every time I see you! Why aren’t you a boy? Daughters of other families, they would have long gone out to work to support their families at your age!”
“You’re the only one, why the f*ck do you want to bother with studying? Do you know how expensive it is to attend school? So what if you study? Aren’t you just going to get married in the future?”
“Aren’t you just going to be a housewife who pops out children, takes care of them, and cleans the house? You’re just like your mother, a useless piece of trash!”
“Ever since I had you, my luck has been getting worse by the day. I haven’t won a single card game up to this day. Every day I lose, every single f*cking day, and you’re taking whatever I have left!”
The person was cursing like a mad dog. With a smash, the sound of a beer bottle breaking could be heard.
Jiang Yu frowned!
She had heard the sound of hissing air!
She raised her foot—
and kicked the door open!
