Chapter 1333: I Only Want You (31)
Bu Xianxian relayed the message to Jin Bao’er, after which No. 5 sought the permission of Jin Qingyue, who vehemently objected to it once again. However, Jin Bao’er began to get anxious and worried about her father.
She was on the verge of tears.
She had no choice but to beg No. 5 to bring her to the hospital, and she promised not to wander off on her own.
She even tried to convince No. 5 that everything would be fine since she would be under his surveillance and that it would just be a quick visit.
No. 5 was initially insistent on sticking to his own principles. However, Jin Bao’er was crying continuously in agony. Seeing how miserable she was, No. 5 softened his heart and conceded after taking into consideration that she had been rather obedient lately. Hence, he made her promise him that she would take no longer than ten minutes.
Thus, No. 5, Jin Bao’er, and Bu Xianxian headed to the hospital together. s.h.i.+ Shaochuan was lying on the hospital bed, and he felt extremely heartened to see that Jin Bao’er had really shown up.
“Daddy, what’s wrong with you?”
“Daddy’s… sick. It’s a little serious. Bao’er, don’t you want to have a meal with me?” said s.h.i.+ Shaochuan, who felt as if he was not in control of his speech.
Jin Bao’er nodded and explained, “I do, but I’ve already promised Uncle No. 5 to stay here for no longer than ten minutes.”
s.h.i.+ Shaochuan looked at No. 5 and asked, “Can’t you let Bao’er stay for a meal with me before bringing her back?”
No. 5 said in refusal, “No. Ms. Jin didn’t allow it at first but I only decided to bring Bao’er here to see you because of how upset she was. She kept crying and weeping. Please don’t make any further requests.”
Despite feeling rather disgruntled, s.h.i.+ Shaochuan had no choice but to concede.
Jin Bao’er stayed for ten minutes before leaving with No. 5.
Bu Xianxian did not exit the ward and instead sent a text message.
She then said, “You may not have gotten to eat with her, but at least you know that Bao’er still cares about you. Your efforts didn’t go in vain.”
s.h.i.+ Shaochuan expressed a.s.sent and said, “I keep feeling really weak and heavy. I’d like to catch some sleep.”
“There’s another bed here. Just lie down and take a nap. We’ll go back after you wake up.”
s.h.i.+ Shaochuan remained silent and closed his eyes while lying down. He dozed off shortly after and fell into a deep sleep.
Bu Xianxian sat down and continued using her mobile phone.
Half an hour later, she received a notification from the bank, which told her that a payment of 700 thousand dollars had been transferred to her account.
She smiled gleefully and stood up immediately to leave.
She left s.h.i.+ Shaochuan alone in the ward.
She could have made the ghost child kill s.h.i.+ Shaochuan. However, she did not do so because she knew that An Xiaoning was a psychic medium and would definitely find out that she was the culprit behind the act. By then, not only will all of s.h.i.+ Shaochuan’s a.s.sets go to Jin Bao’er, she would also be held responsible for his death too.
Hence, she decided to stop when it was time to do so, for she did not want to be liable for anything. To her knowledge, she did not break the law.
Besides, she had never loved s.h.i.+ Shaochuan or wanted to marry him. Hence, leaving now would be the best option.
After adding the 300 thousand dollars that she had received upfront, she thought one million dollars was enough to last her for a long while, provided she doesn’t squander the money away.
….
No. 5 and Jin Bao’er were knocked out by drugged handkerchiefs that were put over their mouths after they left the hospital.
The two of them were then brought away. They tied No. 5 up and dumped him in an abandoned house before abducting Jin Bao’er.
Before leaving the boot camp, No. 5 promised that they would be back within forty minutes. Noticing that they had yet to come back yet, the responsible guards at the door decided to call him again and again. However, No. 5 never once picked up. Hence, the guard decided to inform the instructor, Chen Xu.
Chen Xu then informed Jin Qingyue about the mater.
Jin Qingyue was flabbergasted to hear that No. 5 had ignored her words and brought Jin Bao’er to the hospital.
She sent some bodyguards to the hospital to search for Jin Bao’er. However, the bodyguards reported back to her that Jin Bao’er was nowhere to be found in the hospital and that they had only seen s.h.i.+ Shaochuan sleeping in his ward.
Jin Qingyue continuously tried to call No. 5 but to no avail. Hence, she had no choice but to call Fan s.h.i.+xin.
When she finally found No. 5, she discovered that he had been knocked unconscious and that Jin Bao’er was not with him. Everyone figured out that they had met with a mishap.
However, it was impossible that s.h.i.+ Shaochuan had abducted Jin Bao’er since he was hospitalized.
Hence, he was eliminated from the list of possible suspects.
When No. 5 finally came to, he recounted everything that had happened in detail. Bu Xianxian was then pinned as the prime suspect. Needless to say, Bu Xianxian did not walk in the same direction that Jin Bao’er and No. 5 did. Thus, they searched and found something unusual with Bu Xianxian’s call history instead.
They followed the leads, which led them to Wen Lele. The police only needed two hours to find out that Wen Lele was the culprit.
s.h.i.+ Shaochuan flew into a rage the moment he learned about the matter after he woke up. Yet, to the policemen’s bewilderment, s.h.i.+ Shaochuan’s anger vanished almost instantly.
They were completely puzzled.
The police then began searching for Wen Lele everywhere. At the same time, An Xiaoning and Fan s.h.i.+xin had yet to return from the town.
Little did anyone know, Wen Lele did not flee to a faraway place and was instead staying in her own house, which she had rented specifically because of this task.
It was a fully-detached house that was located in a remote area. The abductors whom she had hired left after taking their due wages and handing Jin Bao’er over to her.
Hence, everyone was greeted with the sight of Wen Lele sitting on the ground with a knife in hand. There was blood trickling down from the knife. Jin Bao’er was lying on the ground next to her, clearly having been stabbed multiple times.
There was a pool of blood on the ground.
Just as the police were about to step forward, Wen Lele picked up the knife and stabbed herself straight in her neck with it ruthlessly. Her will to die was apparent from the strength that she had applied. The police officers scurried toward her, only to have her blood splatter all over their bodies.
“She asked for it…” Wen Lele murmured with her very last breath before collapsing onto the ground.
When the police officers were about to pick Jin Bao’er up, she came to all of a sudden and began spasming because of the immense pain. They then hurriedly carried her to the car and rushed her to the hospital.
They also informed Wen Lele’s family about her death.
The police learned that Wen Lele had long transferred all of her savings, which amounted to about four million dollars, to her parents and informed them of her pa.s.swords under the pretext of wanting them to help safe keep her money. Clearly, she had already decided to die way beforehand.
An Xiaoning and Fan s.h.i.+xin rushed to the hospital to see that Jin Qingyue, Ling Ciye, and Jin Qingyan were all there.
Bawling loudly in despair, Jin Qingyue lamented, “It’s all No. 5’s fault. I clearly told him not to bring Bao’er to the hospital to see s.h.i.+ Shaochuan and yet he defied my orders. He even took her there out of his own accord and ended up causing such a tragedy.”
