Chapter 706: Waiting for Death
Ling Yan did not dare to fall asleep for the entire night.
The moment she closed her eyes, the memory of Gu Weiwei’s death would appear in her mind.
She had to keep talking with her mother Ji Fang, in order to get rid of the fear in her heart.
At dawn, Ji Fang took the earliest flight to the city, where Ling Yan was promoting the movie in A Land. After Ling Yan had finished her work, Hi Fang finally saw her tired and haggard daughter.
The mother and daughter ate together and returned to the hotel room.
“Yanyan, what happened?” Ji Fang anxiously asked the moment she entered the room.
When she was outside, she did not dare to ask because her a.s.sistant and agent were around.
Ling Yan turned on her phone and went straight to the movie clip from Sleepless that showed the murder scene.
Ji Fang was confused as she watched the movie. When she saw the scene where the actor was brain dead and the heart was removed, her hand shook and the phone fell onto the carpet.
“This movie…”
Seeing her mother’s reaction, Ling Yan asked, “Mom, you also think that the look in her eyes resembles Gu Weiwei’s expression back then, right? You also think that this scene is too much, right?”
Ji Fang picked up the phone and looked at Mu Weiwei’s face on the screen in disbelief.
“You suspect that Mu Weiwei knows how Gu Weiwei died?”
Mu Weiwei was the one who made the movie, and the plot was a coincidence. But if the expression and gaze in the scene were the same, then it was not a coincidence.
Ling Yan gritted her teeth and said, “She must know, otherwise she would not have imitated Gu Weiwei’s voice so well, otherwise she would not have fooled Gu Siting at the Gu Family…”
“No, no, maybe we are thinking into it too much.” Ji Fang shook her head and denied Ling Yan’s guess. “If she knew about it, why didn’t she tell Gu Siting?”
Ling Yan looked serious and said resolutely, “I don’t know, but she has so many things to do with Gu Weiwei, it can’t be a coincidence.”
“But… even if it is not a coincidence, what can we do even if she knows about it?”
Ji Fang sighed. She was Fu Hanzheng’s girlfriend, the richest man in Hua Land. Even Gu Siting would not dare to touch her, let alone the Ji Family.
Ling Yan paced back and forth in the room. Why did it have to be Mu Weiwei, Fu Hanzheng’s girlfriend?
She had heard from Gu Siting that Mu Weiwei was being followed by Fu Hanzheng’s bodyguards.
Ever since she was caught by Gu Siting the last time, she had been well protected and now no one could touch her.
“Yanyan, if everything is as you have guessed, we will not be able to defend ourselves against Gu Siting and Mu Weiwei’s words.” Ji Fang calmed down and a.n.a.lyzed the situation.
Ling Yan thought for a moment and then quietly mumbled, “I can ignore Mu Weiwei for now, but Gu Siting… Gu Siting doesn’t have much time left, before the man tells him where her soul is.”
If Gu Siting had given him the deadline, he would have met the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl as soon as he could, instead of waiting the six months.
Not only Gu Siting, but Cayman Dorrans was also waiting for the man.
“Then… can we find that person first?” Ji Fang asked.
If they couldn’t find the owner of the Nine-Eyed Pearl, the mother and daughter would not be able to stop everyone from knowing, unless they saw him before Gu Siting.
“Gu Siting has been sending his men to search for them, but they have not found her. If we go and look for them, we will be discovered by Gu Siting and his men.”
Ling Yan gritted her teeth unwillingly. Was she really going to have to sit back and do nothing?
