Chapter 320: The Girl Who Had Saved Him Was Jiang Wan?
Jiang Chenglang looked at her silently as she spoke.
Tears welled up in Jiang Wan’s eyes. “Big Brother, have you forgotten that my mother and Uncle Jian used to have a personal relationship? Uncle Jian has fallen ill recently. Our families had not spoken to each other since my mother’s passing.”
“I only went to the Jian family to check on Uncle Jian’s condition. Are you going to doubt me just because I went to the Jian family home?”
“I’m curious. Xiao Yu had not been back for very long. You were the one who stayed in the Jiang family for a longer time. Why were those people on the Internet so obsessed with Xiao Yu? It’s not like the Jiang family only has one daughter…”
Jiang Chenglang looked at her calmly and asked slowly, “Why do you think about that?”
Jiang Wan held back her tears and said, “Big Brother, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Do you think I can decide what the people on the internet say? I only found out what had happened when I went online.
“Although I too think that it could not have been done by Big Sister, I’m just a nobody. Who would believe me? If I tell you, you’ll probably think that I’m just a cat crying over a mouse, pretending to be merciful. Moreover, I only visited Uncle Jian once and haven’t been there since.”
“I can’t go back to the Jiang family now, and I can’t go to school. I don’t have many friends by my side. Do you want me to suffocate at home?”
Jiang Chenglang snorted. “Jiang Wan, remember what you said today. If I find out that you’re behind this…”
His eyes were cold and there was no trace of love in them.
Jiang Wan smiled bitterly and said, “Ever since Big Sister’s has returned, our relationship of more than ten years turned out to be so fragile… When the other brothers left the Jiang family, I stayed by your side but you’ve forgotten all about it…”
Her hand trembled and the chopsticks fell to the ground.
Jiang Wan wiped the tears that were about to fall from the corner of her eyes and said with her head lowered, “Forget it, let’s not talk about it. It’s my birthday today, and I want to be happy. I’ll go get another pair of chopsticks.”
She stood up but her body swayed.
Jiang Wan supported her head with one hand to stop the dizziness. She took a step forward but her legs gave way. She fell to the ground!
Rong Qi called out, “Miss Jiang!”
No one answered!
He frowned and walked to Jiang Wan’s side. He called out twice and shook her shoulder lightly.
There was still no response.
“Director Jiang, Miss Jiang has fainted.”
Jiang Chenglang said dismissively, “Call an ambulance.”
Rong Qi called the ambulance and gave the address.
While waiting for the ambulance to arrive, Rong Qi suddenly realized something. He exclaimed, “Director Jiang, look!”
Jiang Wan was wearing a short long-sleeved shirt and high-waisted jeans. When she fainted, the hem of her shirt had slid up, revealing a thin waist.
Normally, Jiang Chenglang doesn’t pay attention to Jiang Wan’s clothes, much less notice that on the right side of her waist, just above the waistband of her jeans, there was a small light red scar that looked like a burn mark. It looked like the drawing of a small carp.
Jiang Chenglang’s eyes followed in the direction that Rong Qi was pointing at and was immediately stunned.
This scar…
Rong Qi said in surprise, “Director Jiang, didn’t the girl you ask me to look for a girl that has a carp-like scar on her waist? I’ve been looking for her for so long but I still haven’t found her. How could that girl be… Miss Jiang?”
Jiang Chenglang frowned and his thoughts immediately returned to the girl who had saved him from the sea many years ago. He didn’t know her name or where she had come from.
He thought of the familiar shape that had burned into his memory and his eyes glazed over.
