Chapter 267

Chapter 267: 260: Xie Shang is completely eaten up (second update) Chapter 267: 260: Xie Shang is completely eaten up (second update) Due to the blizzard, flights were suspended, so Xie Shang and Wen Changling stayed in Linbei City for three days, two of which they spent in the hospital on an IV drip. On the 17th, they were returning home, but Wen Changling didn’t leave with her colleagues. When asked why, she candidly admitted that a family member had come.

Xie Shang had booked a flight for 10:20 in the morning. It was almost nine o’clock, and Wen Changling had not yet gotten up.

Xie Shang was making a phone call in the hallway outside.

The person on the other end was Ke Shaoqing, an old classmate from Xie Shang’s days as a student abroad, who now worked at the provincial Public Security Bureau: “The medical staff at Anding Hospital all have alibis. There’s no suspicion of homicide.”

Xie Shang had previously suspected that Jiang Rucai wasn’t truly insane, but now there was no evidence to prove it since he was dead.

Ke Shaoqing asked, “Why are you so interested in the case in Linbei?”

“I’m more interested in Jiang Chengxue as a person,” Xie Shang said.

“Him?” Ke Shaoqing had also heard of Jiang Chengxue’s reputation, “I have a classmate in the political and legal system of Linbei City who mentioned him to me; many people think there’s something off about him, but no one can seem to pinpoint what it is.”

“Xie Shang.”

Wen Changling was awake and calling out for Xie Shang.

Xie Shang hung up the phone and went back to the room to see Wen Changling in her pajamas, rummaging through the throw pillows on the couch. He placed the breakfast he had packed from the hotel restaurant on the table.

“What are you looking for?”

Wen Changling got off the couch and started to rummage through the table, not even sparing the takeout boxes: “Where’s my hair tie? I can’t find it anywhere.”

Hair ties are such things that even if you have ten, eight will always seem to go missing.

Xie Shang found a black one under the pillow; Wen Changling had placed it there herself the previous night but had forgotten. She took the hair tie from Xie Shang and started tying her hair while heading to the bathroom to wash up.

She urged Xie Shang, “You better pack your luggage quickly; we’re going to be late.”

“It’s all packed.”

“What about the car?”

“I called for one.”

Knowing that Wen Changling had a habit of oversleeping, Xie Shang had everything arranged already.

After brushing her teeth, she scooped some water in her hands and was about to splash it on her face.
