My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 418
Advertisement
On Sunday, the doctor on duty at the hospital and the family doctor Jiang Ruolan had hired came to examine Xian Zihao, but after a week, he still had not returned.
Jiang Ruolan walked alone in the supermarket. She pushed a shopping cart and bought dates and red tea to replenish Xian Zihao's energy and blood. She also bought ingredients for cooking and intended to make a good meal for him in the evening.
As she pushed the shopping cart to the cashier's counter, Jiang Ruolan suddenly remembered that Xian Zihao hadn't been home for a week.
What's the point of her buying this stuff? From beginning to end, she didn't even understand and didn't feel what she was saying was excessive.
If he didn't come back, why would she buy so many things?
She looked down at the variety of blood supplements in the shopping cart and his favorite food.
Jiang Ruolan smiled wryly as she returned the items in the shopping cart one by one. As she turned around, she remembered that the two doctors were coming today, so she wondered if Xian Zihao would be back today.
At the thought of this, Jiang Ruolan turned around, picked up the items again, put them back in the cart, and walked quickly to the cashier's counter.
When she returned, Sister Yanmei was still cleaning the house. Seeing that Jiang Ruolan had returned, she came to greet her with a smile. "How is it? Still no news from Young Master? You two have never had an argument before, and Young Master is not a grumpy person. How did it suddenly become like this? It's been a week."
Jiang Ruolan put down the things in her hands. "He's not back yet?" Her tone was slightly dejected.
Sister Yanmei shook her head and calmed her (Jiang Ruolan) down with her eyes, saying softly, "Wait and see. The doctors will arrive soon. Young Master's injuries are still not healed, he will not treat his body like a child's play."

Jiang Ruolan, on the other hand, can't wait. If Xian Zihao came back today, he would definitely be home by now. Throughout the week, she kept waiting for him and always thought that he would be back.
But in the end, not even his figure can't be seen.
Jiang Ruolan just turned around and left without saying a word. After leaving the residential area, she took a taxi and went straight to Xian Group, and as she was about to enter, she saw Assistant Bai explaining something to one of the employees as she walked out.
Assistant Bai saw her as soon as she went down the stairs. She said a few words to the employee next to her. After that, she walked towards Jiang Ruolan. "Why are you here?"
Jiang Ruolan didn't know if Xian Zihao had come to Xian Group a few days ago. She knew that there was a pretty nice resting room in his office, and since she wasn't sure, she didn't want Assistant Bai to know about the two of them, so she smiled and said, "I went out for a walk and passed Xian Group, so I came to look around and happened to meet you. Why did you leave so early today? It was only two o'clock."
Assistant Bai was surprised, "What? President Xian didn't tell you?"
Jiang Ruolan was stunned. For a moment, she was confused. "Tell me what?"
"While President Xian was injured, he asked us to deal with the Ling Group's case secretly. Recently, both big and small matters have been resolved. With Han Xuegang taking over some of the Ling Group's projects while being appointed vice president, his personal corruption and taking over bribes from the Construction Bureau made the case easy to resolve. We have enough evidence to confiscate all the property he already owned and then impose a prison sentence of twenty to thirty years."

Jiang Ruolan interrupted her. "Just confiscate all the property and go to prison for twenty to thirty years?"
"Yes, even though Han Xuegang has been secretly opposed to President Xian for the past two years, he is actually quite smart. He has never committed any major crimes that are too eye-catching, but even so, all the crimes he committed are basically still crimes against the law. With only a sentence of twenty to thirty years, I felt it was too easy for him. It seems like there are five people and six people involved and if we let them continue to attack us, then we will never get peace again." Assistant Bai smiled.
"When did this happen? Did Xian Zihao talk to you all this time? Did he already decide Han Xuegang's fate when you two discussed this?" Jiang Ruolan's heart tightened as she hurriedly asked.
Seeing her expression, Assistant Bai was confused, but she still smiled and said, "In the week President Xian was just discharged, we have basically settled this matter. As long as Han Xuegang falls into the trap, the Ling Family will be temporarily quiet, and the remaining matter will be left to the Ling Family to handle. With Han Xuegang's current situation, we can only make it to this point. There's no way the law is not on our side. The rest of the matter still needs to be investigated by the higher-ups."
"Oh right, I remember President Xian saying that Han Xuegang and Miss Jiang were once considered old friends. Actually, we have been discussing his sentence for a long time, but President Xian said that we should first investigate other things and let Han Xuegang have time to enjoy himself first. I think President Xian didn't want Miss Jiang to feel uncomfortable with the punishment your friend would receive, so he deliberately postponed the case for so long. Miss Jiang, President Xian really took great care of you."
Assistant Bai seemed to be in a good mood today. She may have some personal things to take care of as she finished work earlier. She looked happy and started talking a lot. Each of her words made Jiang Ruolan's heart sink to the bottom.
After leaving Xian Group, Jiang Ruolan wandered around the Greenville Residence entrance several dozen times and finally she couldn't take it anymore. She took out her phone and immediately called Xian Zihao.
"Sorry, the call you made is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later …"
Jiang Ruolan slowly put down the phone and looked down at the dark screen.
She used to see people arguing with each other in the business world. Once one party catches the other side, they will want the other party to die without a burial ground and never get a chance to see the sun on the second day. Only then can they rest and no longer have to be wary of this person from the beginning.
In the duel of business and government, there was darkness and conspiracy. On the surface, everyone will look polite and courteous, but in the end, when the enemies are captured, they will be beaten to death, and they will never be able to turn the table again.
That day, Xian Zihao's coldness and the expression when he talked about Han Xuegang made her think that he wanted to kill him.
It looks like she really said the wrong thing and… Xian Zihao was truly angry at her.
There was no point in thinking about it now. No matter how much she regretted it, he still hadn't appeared in front of her.
