Chapter 1323 Framed Incident
Holding a grudge, he planned this frame-up in an attempt to destroy Jiang Mubai's reputation.
With Shadow's arrest, the truth of the photo incident was revealed to the world. Zhao Qiang admitted that the girl in the photo was not Jiang Mubai, but Jiang Mubai's sister Jiang Muxue.
He deliberately blurred the photo so that people would mistake it for Jiang Mubai, in order to create a scandal and attract attention.
The disclosure of the truth cleared Jiang Mubai of his grievances and also made the public extremely indignant at Shadow's despicable behavior.
However, Jiang Mubai's heart could not calm down. The appearance of her sister Jiang Muxue reminded her of the painful memories again.
"Yunchuan, did my sister really die of illness that year?" She raised her head with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Cheng Yunchuan's body stiffened slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He was silent for a moment, and ultimately did not answer Jiang Mubai's question.
"Mu Bai, let the past be the past. What's important is that we are together now." He gently put his arm around her shoulders, his tone gentle but with a hint of imperceptible evasion.
Jiang Mubai noticed his abnormality and became even more confused. She always felt that there seemed to be some hidden story behind her sister's death.
In the next few days, Jiang Mubai kept thinking about this problem. She dug out her sister's photos and diaries, trying to find some clues.
Jiang Muxue in the photo has a bright smile and is full of youthful vitality. Her diary also records her longing for the future and her love for life.
Jiang Mubai couldn't believe that such a girl who loved life would suddenly die of illness.
"Yunchuan," she asked again the question in her heart: "Tell me, is there any hidden story behind Mu Xue's death?"
Cheng Yunchuan's expression turned a little ugly. He was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Mu Bai, there are some things that you are better off not knowing."
His tone contained a hint of warning.
Jiang Mubai became more certain of his guess in his heart that his sister's death must not be that simple.
Her tone became firm: "Yunchuan, I must know the truth."
Cheng Yunchuan looked at her, his eyes full of struggle. He knew that if he told her the truth, it would completely disrupt her current peaceful life.
However, looking at her determined eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Okay, I'll tell you." He sighed and finally made a decision.
He took Jiang Mubai's hand and came to the study. He took a black box from the bookshelf and opened it. There was a stack of photos and a document inside.
He handed the photo to Jiang Mubai. In the photo, there was a man in a suit and tie. He looked gentle and refined, but there was a hint of viciousness in his eyes.
"This person was the one who sat with your sister back then. Your sister saw him for the last time. I checked but there is no news about this man." Cheng Yunchuan handed a photo to Jiang Mubai.
Jiang Mubai looked at the man in the photo. Why did the original owner's sister want to see this man for the last time? Was there some shameful secret? Now that she has been in public for so long, the man has not appeared. Didn't he have any doubts?
"Mu Bai, I'm sorry that I didn't protect your sister back then." Cheng Yunchuan walked up to her and hugged her in his arms.
Jiang Mubai hugged him tightly. She knew that Cheng Yunchuan had been hiding this matter deep in his heart and enduring great pain alone.
"You have tried your best. If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. I will find out the truth myself." Jiang Mubai wanted to find out the truth for himself and the original owner's sister.
Cheng Yunchuan hugged her tightly, his heart filled with grief and regret.
a few days later.
Just then, a rapid cell phone ring sounded.
When Cheng Yunchuan received the call, he was studying a new script with Jiang Mubai. The assistant on the other end of the phone sounded extremely flustered, as if something big had happened. Cheng Yunchuan made an impatient "tsk" sound and pressed the hands-free button.
"Mr. Cheng, Madam... Madam fell down the stairs and is in the hospital now!"
Cheng Yunchuan raised his eyebrows, and there was no trace of worry in his tone: "Fell down? It's not a big deal, can't you just ask the family doctor to check it out? Qin Yuanqing is not at home? Why are you calling me?"
Jiang Mubai raised his head with a questioning look in his eyes. Cheng Yunchuan explained calmly, "Li Shufen fell down from her home for some reason, and I ran into her when I went back to get something."
The tone was full of disdain.
"Mr. Cheng, your wife's injuries seem to be very serious and she keeps crying out in pain." The assistant's voice became smaller and smaller, and he obviously sensed Cheng Yunchuan's displeasure.
Cheng Yunchuan was about to refuse, but Jiang Mubai snatched the phone away. "Which hospital? We'll be there right away."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Mubai looked at Cheng Yunchuan with a half-smile: "Why, you don't plan to fulfill your filial duty?"
Cheng Yunchuan spread his hands helplessly: "I don't know her well, and going there will only make her angrier."
From childhood to adulthood, his relationship with his stepmother has been like fire and water. The other party dislikes him, but he is too lazy to deal with it.
Jiang Mubai insisted, but she had other plans in mind: "Go ahead, he's your elder after all, you have to save face for him."
When they arrived at the hospital, Cheng Yunchuan's father Qin Zhen had been waiting for a long time, his face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out: "You still remember to come! Your mother is like this, and you still have the heart to stay at home!"
Cheng Yunchuan frowned impatiently: "I'm here now, right? Is it necessary to mobilize so many troops?"
Qin Zhen roared: "Mobilizing a large army? If your mother hadn't been nagging you, would I have called you over? Do you still have me as your father and her as your mother in your eyes? "
Jiang Mubai gently pulled Cheng Yunchuan's sleeve, signaling him to say less. She gently said to Qin Zhen, "Dad, don't be angry. Yunchuan didn't mean it. He was busy with work and might not have reacted for a while."
Qin Zhen snorted coldly, and his expression eased a little: "Mu Bai, you are sensible. Unlike some people, they forget who they are when they grow up."
Cheng Yunchuan rolled his eyes, too lazy to pay attention to Qin Zhen's sarcasm. He walked to the bedside, looked at his stepmother lying on the bed with a pale face and a plaster cast on her leg, and greeted her perfunctorily.
"Don't blame me and Yuan Qing. I'm just worried about you. I'm afraid that you won't live well with Mu Bai out there." Cheng Yunchuan was disgusted by his stepmother's aggrieved look.
Cheng Yunchuan immediately interrupted her: "Thank you for your kindness, but it is not convenient for Mu Bai and I to live at home now."
The stepmother's face changed and she wanted to say something, but Qin Zhen glared at her and she had to give up.
Coming out of the hospital, Cheng Yunchuan's face was gloomy. Jiang Mubai took his arm and comforted him softly, "Don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry for such a person."
Cheng Yunchuan sneered: "She did it on purpose, wanting me to stay and take care of her so that she would have the opportunity to sow discord between me and my father."
