Chapter 156 Is Jiang Han with You?
Zhongli didn't know much about the specifics, and Shen Chaoxi had no idea either.
Before she came, Shang Jianghan told her not to ask too much about this matter. Shen Chaoxi was naturally worried, but she was also afraid that her unwarranted intervention would disrupt Shang Jianghan's plans.
Before going to bed at night, Shen Chaoxi sent a message to Shang Jianghan.
It's already twelve o'clock in the night. I wonder if he is asleep at this time.
As a result, the other party replied within less than a minute after the message was sent.
At this time, Shang Jianghan was not in the city, but on a business trip. He said he was not sure which city he was in, but it was just a daily branch inspection. He might be in Sucheng at night, and would go to Ningcheng tomorrow morning, and would be in another city in the afternoon.
Shen Chaoxi was happy when he heard the voice message he sent.
It turns out that she was still worried. It turned out that this person also went out to hide, and with a legitimate reason!
Shen Chaoxi didn't ask much about the details of Bai Jingran's accident. She just vaguely felt that Bai Jingran's matter could have been properly handled, but was deliberately leaked by someone.
And this person is closely related to Shang Jianghan.
The second and third days were relatively peaceful, but on the fourth day Shen Chaoxi received a call from Bai Jinyu.
Although the matter had not yet been exposed to the Internet, when Shen Chaoxi went to visit the crew, he vaguely heard people discussing it.
That means everyone will know about it soon!
Or, the police have already intervened, but because of the Bai family's complicated social relationships, they have to conduct a secret investigation.
Shen Chaoxi didn't save Bai Jinyu's phone number, but the caller ID showed that the number was from Shangjing City, which was a pretty auspicious number.
"Hello, who is this?" Shen Chaoxi asked politely and calmly.
The other party was silent for a moment.
"I."
I?
It’s not that Shen Chaoxi holds a grudge, it’s that she really didn’t hear the sound.
"Who are you?" Shen Chaoxi asked again.
"Shen Chaoxi, you are just pretending!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Chaoxi recognized the voice.
It’s her mother-in-law!
"I'm sorry, I didn't hear you just now. What can I do for you?"
This time, Shen Chaoxi admitted it frankly, but she didn't call anyone.
Why bother? If the relationship is really not good, there is no need to pretend.
There was a sound of heavy breathing from the other side.
"Is Jiang Han with you?"
Bai Jinyu has one advantage, she won't drag her feet, and her identity as the eldest daughter of the Bai family won't drag her feet either.
"No, I'm on the set, he's on a business trip!"
There was no need for Shen Chaoxi to hide it.
After a while, it seemed that the other party had believed her words.
"Then you must know where he is on business now, right?"
Not sure if it was an illusion, but Shen Chaoxi felt Bai Jinyu's voice was much weaker.
That's normal. No one will feel comfortable when you make demands on others, no matter how condescending you are.
"Oh, let me see. When we were chatting last night, where did he say he was going?..." Shen Chaoxi really went to look through the chat records and read out the name of a city.
Then she also responded with the same sentence that Shang Jianghan said that day about the schedule being subject to change: "... He said he was running back and forth. He might be in Sucheng in the morning, in Pengcheng in the afternoon, or visiting an assembly line at a pharmaceutical factory in the evening..."
Shen Chaoxi was about to say something when the other party interrupted him impatiently.
"Okay, I get it!"
However, after saying this, Bai Jinyu still did not hang up or speak.
Shen Chaoxi didn't want to waste time with her, so she said, "Jiang Han's phone is always connected. He just sent me a message. You call him."
After saying this, Shen Chaoxi heard the busy tone with satisfaction.
I thought Bai Jinyu must be angry, but I didn't expect that she had smashed the phone in her hand, and she did it in front of Bai Qirui and his wife and the Bai family's elders. He had time to send messages to his wife, but he didn't even answer a call from the Bai family!
Just now, Bai Jinyu's phone was on speaker, and they all heard Shen Chaoxi's voice.
"Jinyu, what can I say about you? Why couldn't you be nicer to him when you gave birth to the child?" The old man of the Bai family couldn't help but complain a few words.
Except when necessary, Shang Jianghan rarely interacts with the Bai family.
The old lady of the Bai family quietly kicked the old man with her foot.
Sure enough, Bai Jinyu became even angrier.
"Don't you know why I don't like that kid?"
The person Bai Qirui can't afford to offend the most is his older sister. He doesn't know when it started, but she is no longer the pretty girl that his brother always talks about, but a resentful and vengeful woman who looks full of resentment and hatred when she sees them.
"Dad, Mom, let's not talk about this for now. Jingran is still in there. We can't keep this secret for long. I don't know who told my brother about it yesterday, and he even came to ask me about it!" Ruan Lingling said.
She has been suffering a lot these days, so how can she maintain her well-maintained appearance? She looks worried, unkempt, and has almost as many wrinkles under her eyes as an old lady.
Old Master Bai frowned and extended his hand to Bai Qirui.
"Give me the phone. I'll call Jiang Han."
Bai Qirui sighed and quickly went upstairs to get his cell phone.
The old man was asked to come forward and of course used his private phone. Moreover, in recent years, it seemed that apart from this phone, Shang Jia and his son rarely answered calls from other members of the Bai family.
The reason why the old man spoke up now was actually related to the fact that Shang Jianghan came to his house to discuss something with him half a month ago and was rejected.
You treasure your grandson so much that whenever he gets into trouble you ask the Shang family and his son to help him deal with the mess. But when they run into difficulties you hold on to the kindness you received in your early years and not only do not help him, you also demand repayment for the favor and say things so decisively.
Now, what's worse than nothing, something happened to my grandson again!
The old man has used all kinds of connections these days, and those people have discussed things with him, and everything they say to him is consistent.
"Mr. Bai! You are old now, so stop worrying about your children. Wouldn't it be nice to enjoy a few years of peace and quiet?"
"Uncle Bai, it's not that you won't help me, but we absolutely cannot do anything that violates the law!"
The old man's hands were shaking as he took the phone.
When the phone was handed over by Bai Qirui, Shang Jianghan's number had already been dialed.
Mr. Bai looked at his son with an extremely disappointed and hopeless look.
He has sighed enough these days, he is really exhausted!
"Send him away once he comes out. If anything happens again, don't call him Bai anymore!"
The old man's voice suddenly sounded much older.
Bai Qirui has no special talents, but he is filial and loves his parents. However, he can't help but feel that his son is not doing well enough.
"it is good!"
Bai Qirui agreed without hesitation.
Ruan Lingling wanted to say something, but Bai Qirui glared at her, so she had to take it back timidly.
The reason why Bai Jingran became like this is because of his education.
The call was answered without incident.
Mr. Bai still has this confidence.
"Grandpa."
Without waiting for Mr. Bai to speak, Shang Jianghan, who was always polite, addressed him first.
"Jiang Han, where is he?"
This was the first time the old man spoke politely to his grandson. In the past, he had always said, "Your brother is in some trouble. You decide who to find to solve it!"
At this time, Shang Jianghan was in the car.
After seeing the caller ID number, Yu Dong handed over the phone and raised the tailgate of the car.
"In the car, Grandpa, is there anything urgent?"
Shang Jianghan's voice was low and sounded tired.
The old man didn't know how to start for a moment.
After a while, he asked, "Jing Ran got into trouble again. Have you heard about it?"
