Night Fire Lingering

Chapter 282 Only the Silent Dog Bite

When Gu Yanci asked this question, he already had the answer in his heart.

Ji Chang is obsessive, but she is not a fool, especially when it involves her beloved son, Gu Jingzhou.

Ji Chang quickly realized: "Nan Zhiyi, it's Nan Zhiyi!"

Only Nan Zhiyi knew beforehand about her plan to bring Wen Yan and Jiang Huaixu to the hotel!

Hatred flashed in Ji Chang's eyes. Her face was still swollen. She took out her phone, but Gu Yanci pressed her hand down.

"What do you want to do?"

"Call her and ask!"

Gu Yanci gave a mocking laugh: "Do you have any evidence? You are the only person who participated in and appeared in this matter from beginning to end."

Nan Zhiyi's only action was to hand Wen Yan the room key.

Ji Chang's face turned pale.

She never took Nan Zhiyi seriously. In her eyes, Nan Zhiyi was just a tool to make Wen Yan leave her son. This tool was obedient, weak, and knew how to make her happy.

Surprisingly, it was a dog that didn't bark!

Only the quietest dog bites!

She wanted to use Nan Zhiyi, and Nan Zhiyi was using her too!

When Jiang's parents heard the new name, they exchanged a glance, but their attention was not diverted by Ji Chang's words.

"Old Master Gu, we will continue to investigate the responsibilities of others, and you are welcome to do so as well. But no matter what, you cannot escape responsibility for my son's situation!"

"Mr. Jiang, please don't be hasty! Our Gu family is responsible for our actions and has absolutely no intention of shifting blame. We simply want to find out the truth and the details. You don't want any of the murderers to get away scot-free, do you?" Old Master Gu asked. "How would you like us to compensate you?"

Jiang's mother looked at Ji Chang with disgust: "I think Ms. Ji's thinking is a bit extreme. It would be better if she stayed at home from now on, so that she doesn't harm not only my son but also other people's children!"

"What...what did you say? You want to imprison me here?" Ji Chang reacted extremely strongly. In her view, such a request was tantamount to an insult. "Your son's heart is my son's! You should thank me, your whole family should thank my son! You won't even let me see my son?!"

Jiang's parents were stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that when Jiang Huaixu underwent heart transplant surgery, they had indeed heard that the frail and sickly eldest son of the Gu family in the capital had passed away.

What a coincidence!

“That’s my son, his surname is Jiang!” Jiang’s mother quickly realized and arrogantly raised her chin.

Mr. Jiang, not wanting to argue any further, said, "Mr. Gu, I hope you can give us a satisfactory answer today. Otherwise, we'll have to call the police and see you in court."

In any case, in the end, it's the Gu family who will lose face, and it's also the Gu family who will end up in jail.

Jiang's parents left after they finished speaking.

"He truly is the vessel for my son's heart!" Ji Chang roared at their retreating figures.

Still not satisfied after yelling, she turned to ask Old Madam Gu and Old Master Gu, "Dad, Mom, do you know that's Jingzhou's heart! That's Jingzhou!"

"You think I don't know where my grandson's heart went?" Old Master Gu found it absurd. "That's just an organ, not Jingzhou!"

Old Mrs. Gu made the final decision: "Ah Chang, you're too confused! From now on, you shouldn't go out anymore. If you need anything, have someone send it to the manor."

"You're going to lock me up? Lock me up like I'm a madman?"

"Do you want to go to court and end up in jail? And what you did yesterday, how dare you even step out the door?! We're old folks, we can let it go, but do you want to drag your son, Aci, into this too?"

son?

Yes, she also has a son!

Ji Chang grabbed Gu Yanci's hand as if it were a straw: "Aci, say something! You can't let them bully Mom like this!"

Gu Yanci was tall and looked down at his mother.

When I was a child, my mother was gentle, but that gentleness had a specific target: Gu Jingzhou.

After Gu Jingzhou's death, his mother became distant, cold, and harsh.

At this moment, her madness reveals her paranoia and selfishness.

She never had him in her heart; he was nothing more than a tool in her eyes. That's why she could send his beloved woman to another man's bed, and why she could feel at ease asking him to "save" her after hurting him.

“Aci…” Ji Chang looked at Gu Yanci expectantly.

Gu Yanci lowered his eyes and slowly removed the woman's hand.

Slow but firm.
