Chapter 1491: Chapter 1491: He is the Mastermind (3)
Su Hongxing said this, feeling increasingly that Ye Qilan’s suspicion was wrong.
Moreover, Ye Qilan had no evidence to prove any of it.
Ye Qilan looked at Su Hongxing and realized that deep down this woman was still protective of Xiao Ji, otherwise she wouldn’t be so agitated.
“My people could only follow from a distance, at least not far enough to intrude into Xiao Ji’s home to see what secret he really has. I’m only proposing this hypothesis, not claiming it as the truth. Get some rest, it’s late.” Ye Qilan pushed Su Hongxing into the bedroom: “Our son sleeps with me tonight, and our daughter with you, okay?”
Su Hongxing nodded mechanically, her mind blank.
Seeing her lost and forlorn appearance, Ye Qilan watched her get into bed, turned off the light for her, and then left with the sleeping Little Baozi.
Su Hongxing stared wide-eyed at the ceiling, unable to sleep.
Logic told her that Ye Qilan’s guess was likely true, but emotionally she resisted this possibility.
The Xiao Family’s kindness to her was vast and profound, with Xiao Ji being the only family left for Xiao Mother. If she must confront Xiao Ji, how would she face Xiao Mother?
Once, she thought Xiao Ji had finally moved on from her, which relieved her.
But now, should she face reality?
The next morning, Ye Qilan saw Su Hongxing come downstairs, noting her usual demeanor without any sign of trouble. He breathed a sigh of relief…
Xiao Ji had been waiting for the servant’s call.
Waiting day and night, when no call came, he guessed that the servant might have been exposed.
Watching the night dispersed by dawn, after enduring this difficult day and night, he already had a decision in his heart.
With what’s happened, given Ye Qilan’s capabilities, he probably figured out a lot of the truth. In the future, there’s no need for him to be secretive in anything he does.
He called the hospital, and the attending doctor told him that there was already a treatment plan in place, which should help Du Qingyu’s condition.
In a week, the effects of the treatment would be apparent. This should be good news, but now, he doesn’t have time to wait for Du Qingyu to be discharged.
At ten o’clock that morning, Hongkang Group suddenly held a news conference, Chairman Zhao suddenly resigned as Chairman of Hongkang Group.
This incident caused a stir throughout the city, everyone speculating who would take over the chairmanship of Hongkang Group. Even Qiao Qiao became deeply intrigued by this matter.
She belatedly realized that Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing seemed indifferent to this matter, which surprised her greatly.
Su Hongxing had mentioned before that the hidden owner behind Hongkang Group was formidable. Thus, how could this woman possibly not be interested in matters concerning Hongkang Group?
Seizing a moment, she pulled Su Hongxing aside and asked, “Why aren’t you concerned about the change of chairman at Hongkang Group?”
Su Hongxing replied disinterestedly, “I probably know who’s taking the chairman position.”
Perhaps Xiao Ji himself also knows some things can’t be hidden anymore, which is why Hongkang Group suddenly made such a big move.
“You figured it out?” Qiao Qiao was stunned: “Are you joking?”
Judging by Su Hongxing’s expression, she didn’t seem to be joking. How could she possibly know about internal matters of Hongkang Group?
“Unless unexpected, it’s Xiao Ji.” Su Hongxing chuckled: “I hope I’m wrong.”
Qiao Qiao originally wanted to pursue the matter further, but seeing Su Hongxing’s demeanor, she instantly lost interest in gossiping.
If Xiao Ji takes on the chairmanship, does that mean Xiao Ji is the hidden person they’ve been searching for all along?
