Chapter 1195: Chapter 1195: Heaven’s Arrangement
Xia Yinian trembled for quite a while before she finally stopped.
She lay there thinking about many things until the sound of a text message alert startled her, causing her to sit up with a sob.
Opening the text from Qin Yiheng, Xia Yinian bit her lip, her whole body stiff for a long time.
She deleted the message before putting her phone down and drying her tears.
"Grandpa, I’m fine. No matter what, I will get to the bottom of what you want to say. Please don’t feel bad, okay?"
"And, Grandpa, I may not be able to come to see you every day during this time."
"If you find that the person by your side when you wake up isn’t who you need, just keep pretending to be asleep, okay? I’ll come to see you whenever I have time."
Xia Chuxue has been by Grandpa’s side recently, and with so many cameras watching, as long as Grandpa doesn’t wake up, she won’t do anything extra.
But if Grandpa shows signs of waking up, she certainly won’t let it go.
So, Xia Yinian’s words were a reminder that if only Xia Chuxue was there, she’d rather Grandpa continue to sleep than wake up.
She doesn’t know when it happened, but she’s already pinpointed Xia Chuxue as the suspect who harmed Grandpa. The key now is to first prove her own identity.
Xia Yinian pursed her lips, patted the back of the Old Master’s hand, and stood up.
After just a slight movement earlier, the Old Master showed no further sign.
Looking at his rosy face, like an old man in deep sleep, Xia Yinian gave a slight smile.
She knows Grandpa is such a good person that heaven wouldn’t let him leave with regrets.
The fact she got a call from Sister Qiangwei is heaven’s arrangement, isn’t it?
"I have to go back first. Rest well."
Xia Chuxue just went back for a shower, and Xia Yinian didn’t know when she’d return, so she had to leave now.
Leaving the Old Master’s room, Xia Yinian went nowhere else and returned directly to the row of houses on the back hill.
Returning to her room and closing the door, she took out the two strands of white hair from her pocket and carefully wrapped them in a bag.
She had to handle things herself. The most important thing now was to find an excuse to leave safely without arousing suspicion and return safely.
Xia Yinian had already decided that if she truly was the Young Miss of the Feng Family, she would tell Feng Yan immediately.
He was the only one she knew who wouldn’t hurt Grandpa. If she didn’t trust even him in the Feng Family, she didn’t know whom she could trust.
After putting everything in place, Xia Yinian dialed another number.
"Hello, Brother Ling Qian."
"Nian Nian, so late, are you thinking of me?" Gu Lingqian’s slightly hoarse voice came through.
"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Xia Yinian immediately frowned.
It was because she was familiar with Gu Lingqian that she could tell something was off just from his voice.
"Nothing." Gu Lingqian slightly curved his lips, placing down the wine bottle in his hand.
The slight sound still reached Xia Yinian’s ears.
"Brother Ling Qian, are you drinking? And so late?"
"Hmm." Gu Lingqian nodded, "Work has been going quite smoothly lately."
His eyes were fixed on a black-on-white engagement contract, but the man steered the conversation towards work.
Xia Yinian frowned, puzzled and incredulous.
Brother Ling Qian has always been successful in his work. What kind of project makes him so happy that he’s drinking late at night?
Moreover, his voice didn’t sound particularly joyful.
