Chapter 115 Questioning
"Take him down."
Jiang Ning uttered a few words coldly, then left surrounded by a group of bodyguards.
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission."
There was a sound of clothes rubbing against each other behind her, but Jiang Ning ignored it and put on her sunglasses before going out.
After all, when you are away from home, your identity is given by yourself.
She also had to pretend to be indifferent, so that no one would see that she was sad at all.
The puppy floated beside Jiang Ning, with stars in its eyes, and said to Jiang Ning:
"Wow, you have no idea how domineering you were just now, especially the last sentence 'Take him away', it was so cool, okay?"
Jiang Ning was still holding the bag in her hand, with no expression on her face, but the uncontrollable upward curl of her lips revealed her proud and complacent mood.
She patted the puppy. Although the people following behind her didn't know who Jiang Ning was greeting, they pretended not to see anything.
"Glib mouth. Don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this this time."
Jiang Ning walked in front step by step in her high heels, her skirt fluttering with her steps. Her walking looked like a scene from a movie, so beautiful.
In the evening, Jiang Ning booked a restaurant with the best night view in the city. Looking at the scenery outside the window, she inevitably thought of Gu Yuan again.
If Gu Yuan was there, he would definitely eat with Jiang Ning and serve Jiang Ning all the new and exotic things in the store.
"Hello, Miss. I am your exclusive waiter, Xiao Wang. What can I do for you?"
A waiter in uniform appeared beside Jiang Ning and pulled Jiang Ning back to his senses.
She took the menu from the waiter, but after reading two pages she got bored, so she said to the waiter:
"Whatever you have here, bring up everything you have here. I want to eat it within thirty minutes, or you can't bring it up."
The waiter took the menu back respectfully, then bowed to Jiang Ning and said to her:
"Okay, please wait a moment, we will send a special chef to serve you."
Sure enough, they were still unwilling to lose Jiang Ning, a big customer. All of a sudden, three or five chefs appeared in front of Jiang Ning and only served her.
Jiang Ning picked up the shark fin from the plate, took a bite, and said:
"Yeah, that's good. It seems you did your homework in advance and know what I like. That's good."
Afterwards, Jiang Ning found an excuse to send all the waiters away, and she wanted to finish the rest by herself.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, Jiang Ning finally remembered the important things he needed to do.
"Go check out and take me home."
Jiang Ning randomly sent a bodyguard to settle the bill, and then the rest of the people followed her home. This was the highlight of tonight.
The car was speeding on the road, but Jiang Ning wanted to go faster, so he repeatedly urged the driver, "Can you go faster?"
The driver didn't dare to say anything and could only do as he was told and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.
In the end, Jiang Ning's car got home in almost half the time than usual.
As soon as he entered the house, Jiang Ning took off all his equipment and said to the housekeeper:
"Where's the man? Bring him up to me."
The housekeeper immediately appeared in front of Jiang Ning and said to her:
"Miss, you may need to wait for a while. He may not be in good condition right now."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning became a little anxious. She didn't want what she had been looking forward to for a whole day to come to nothing, otherwise all her efforts for the whole afternoon would have been in vain.
She asked the housekeeper:
"Oh? What happened? Wasn't it still fine when I brought it back this afternoon?"
The butler lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to tell Jiang Ning about this matter directly. He moved his mouth but no sound came out.
In the end, he decided to face the storm and mustered up the courage to say to Jiang Ning:
"Yes, he was fine when he came this afternoon, but Miss, you said that we should take special care of him, so our people accidentally used too much force, and now he seems to be unable to wake up..."
Jiang Ning sighed, which was a sign that she was going to get angry. The housekeeper also began to get scared, not because of her, but because he was worried that he would do something wrong and be scolded by his real boss.
Sure enough, after 0.1 second, Jiang Ning started to lose her temper. She almost pointed at the housekeeper's nose and cursed:
"At least leave him alive. If he dies, my last clue will be gone. Don't you know that? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you've worked in this family for so many years. How come you don't think before you act?"
The butler tried to be as gentle as possible, hoping that his attitude would make Jiang Ning less angry.
"I'm sorry Miss, this was unintentional, please forgive us."
Jiang Ning lay on the sofa, looking at the person in front of her, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness. She finally waved her hand and said:
"Forget it, forget it. There's no point in telling you. Bring the person up here now so I can see what's going on."
The butler waved to the people next to him to bring the person up, and half a minute later, they dragged up a person covered in blood.
In fact, this person's body was covered with bloodstains, but Jiang Ning could still recognize him at a glance. This person was Special Assistant Li.
It was so terrifying that even Jiang Ning felt terrified. She immediately rushed over to take a look, but after seeing it, she couldn't help but exclaimed:
"My goodness, how could you have made him like this? If he wakes up and accuses you of torturing him, I won't be able to find excuses for you."
The housekeeper said, "I'm sorry, Miss. They didn't treat him with enough severity. But I've checked with the doctor and he's definitely not dead. If he takes care of himself, he should be able to recover."
"You also said it's a follow-up, so why don't you find a way to wake him up right now, otherwise how can I ask him questions?"
Jiang Ning asked back, and then felt aggrieved and said:
"Do you know how long I've been waiting? I deliberately delayed it until this moment in order not to show it in front of outsiders, and yet you still do this."
A basin of cold water was poured over his head. He woke up almost instantly when he felt the stinging pain of the water seeping into his skin.
But his first reaction when he woke up was not to beg for mercy, but to be afraid. He kicked his legs hard, trying to move his body away from this place.
"Ahhhhhhh! It wasn't me! I didn't do anything! I beg you to stop torturing me!"
However, it was hard to tell whether he was pretending or not, so Jiang Ning immediately gave the order:
"Quick, someone hold him down."
Four bodyguards pressed him into a chair and tied his hands and feet so that he could no longer move freely.
Jiang Ning kicked his leg and cursed:
"Be honest, if you answer honestly, I can let you go."
He also tactfully stopped moving, but still refused to tell the whole truth. He always told Jiang Ning a question and he did so.
Jiang Ning also felt that it was too troublesome to continue like this, so she prepared to threaten Assistant Li.
"No, it seems you are still not honest with me."
She walked to the table where the tools were placed, then randomly took out a pair of pliers and waved it twice in front of Assistant Li. He immediately became so scared that he trembled all over.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you, as long as you can forgive me this time."
His voice was trembling and his speech was a little discontinuous, but he still tried his best to narrate the whole story in full.
After hearing this, Jiang Ning was immediately sure that what Xiao Gou said was right.
According to Special Assistant Li, he indeed took over Gu Yuan's body, and through his understanding of Gu Yuan and Gu Yuan's trust in him, he did succeed.
Then he got what he wanted through such despicable means, and even after getting it, he destroyed everything in order not to expose his actions.
The more Jiang Ning listened, the angrier she became. She rushed to him, looked him straight in the eyes, and said angrily:
"Then, why don't you let him go? He's been so good to you and always considered your thoughts. Is this how you repay him?"
But he sneered as if nothing had happened:
"If I don't do this, do I have to wait for you to catch me? Hahahaha!"
Jiang Ning was so angry that he slapped him in the face, knocking him and the stool to the ground.
If he was willing to stop, Gu Yuan would have a chance to survive. And Gu Yuan is such a loyal person, I guess he would choose to forgive even if he knew about it later.
