My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 229 - Untitled

Jiang Ruolan took it and took a sip. At first, she was not enthusiastic, but because everything was set and booked, so she still braced herself. After all, this wedding ceremony was a symbol, and Jiang Ruolan hoped Zhou Shufen would stop harassing and try to destroy her relationship with Xian Zihao.

In fact, Jiang Ruolan wasn't a very persistent person, so she wouldn't force herself to endure too many things that she couldn't tolerate. To put it bluntly, she did believe Xian Zihao.

Jiang Ruolan met Xian Zihao's honest gaze and said sincerely, "I want the wedding arrangements to be simple. I want it held between friends and relatives. For friends from both the business and government side, we will invite them to a banquet at a different time since we need to have the same respect for them too, right?"

Xian Zihao smiled faintly and gently stroked her head with his hand. "Of course, that is what I had planned to do as well. At least I don't want my wedding to turn into a fawning celebration."

Jiang Ruolan smiled sweetly and wrapped her arms around his neck. She wanted to kiss him on the cheek while no one was looking, but she suddenly heard a sound of shooting and a flash.

Jiang Ruolan turned her head and saw the photographer chuckling, "This one is not bad ~"

Jiang Ruolan was so embarrassed. Then she heard Xian Zihao's laughter coming from above her head. He hugged her to prevent her from snatching the photographer's camera.

Jiang Ruolan hugged him back.

'Xian Zihao, you should feel really lucky. If the one you met was Jiang Ruolan, who just came out of Jiang Family seven years ago, you probably would have been bitten all over by me and turned into a panda.'

The current Jiang Ruolan was no longer the impulsive girl when she was seventeen.

Time would truly change many things, such as the orientation of value, the cultivation of character, and the method and the bottom line of love.

Jiang Ruolan got up from the sofa and looked at the door to the second floor, which was opened. Thinking that Xian Zihao should be in the study, she casually picked up her phone and wanted to call the hospital.

She booked the appointment for a check-up and immediately asked for a female doctor.?She wasn't uncomfortable being checked by the male doctor, and although this was a normal situation, she really couldn't accept it.

Jiang Ruolan wanted a female doctor because she wanted her examined in all aspects.

After making an appointment at the gynecology clinic tomorrow afternoon, Jiang Ruolan decided to take a quick nap. When she woke up, she saw Xian Zihao walking down from the second floor and taking the call.

"Zihao?" Jiang Ruolan called out his name when she saw him change into a new shirt.

Xian Zihao's gaze turned gentle as he looked at her, "Do you know about Xian Group and Black Market? The police have intercepted the criminal accomplice. I need to go check the scene. Be good and stay home, I will be back soon."

"Is it dangerous? You need to be careful." Jiang Ruolan was anxious. She was really worried that something bad would happen to him.

"Are you that worried about me? Are you afraid that I'll run away?" Xian Zihao raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Ruolan ran her hand over the newspaper. "Isn't it good to worry about you?"

"I'll be back after I handle this case. You go to bed early. I promise to be by your side when you wake up in the morning. Hmm?"

Xian Zihao chuckled. Without waiting for her reply, he picked up his coat and put it in the crook of his arm before heading out.

Jiang Ruolan went to heat a glass of milk for herself and went to sleep. She knew that she would wake up the next morning to find Xian Zihao lying next to her. She knew she would see him, so she didn't have any worries.

Life was so warm and peaceful. For every woman, this was the happiness they wanted the most.

Jiang Ruolan woke up from her sleep in shock. Her body was drenched in a cold sweat. When she got up, she found that Xian Zihao hadn't returned yet. She looked at her phone on the bedside table. There were two missed calls.

Jiang Ruolan didn't know if she pressed the mute button or not, but she really didn't hear any calls. It was Assistant Bai's number.

The time of the call was 2 in the morning and it was already 5 in the morning. Jiang Ruolan hesitated for a moment. There must be something urgent for Assistant Bai to call at this time.

Jiang Ruolan immediately called Assistant Bai anxiously. historical

The phone rang a dozen times before it was answered. Just as it was connected, there was a burst of noise coming from the other side. It sounded like there were quite a few people there.

"Miss Jiang?" Assistant Bai's voice sounded a little tired.

"Assistant Bai, you called me? What happened?"

Jiang Ruolan glanced at the time and started to worry. When Assistant Bai said the following words, her face instantly turned pale.

Jiang Ruolan abruptly got up from the bed and grabbed her coat. She put it on and hurriedly ran out.

Since she was unfamiliar with hospitals in the eastern suburbs, she decided to get a taxi. Assistant Bai's words kept echoing in her head. "Last night, we arrested this criminal on the eastern outskirts of the city. The people involved in the dirty case, including some thugs, decided to intervene, resulting in a shooting case last night. President Xian and others ... He was shot while trying to rescue a company employee who was in the custody of the gang."

"The gunshot wound was on his shoulder. The doctor had tried his best to treat the wound and President Xian was out of danger. Although it's not fatal, he remained unconscious for several hours. President Xian was still lying in the intensive care unit and not yet waking up."

There were only a few taxis in the early morning. Jiang Ruolan hurried to the main road to call a taxi. However, she was only walking a few steps when she felt someone rush towards her from behind.

Jiang Ruolan gasped in a breath. An extremely pungent smell suddenly assaulted her nose. The moment she realized that her nose and mouth had been covered with a cotton cloth, she tried to fight, but for some inexplicable reason, she felt her head spin. Before she could even struggle, her vision went dark and her body powerlessly fell backward.
