Wei Lin received the call after 4 pm, normally at this time he was either in a meeting or entertaining outside, rarely like now sleeping at home.
He didn't get off the plane until 12:30 this afternoon, and after a sleepless night plus jet lag, he didn't even have time to take a shower before collapsing onto the bed in a deep sleep...
Having slept for less than three hours, the continuous ringing of the phone on the bedside table started... There has never been a moment when Wei Da Shao wanted to kill someone so much, with anger all over his body, he didn't even look at the phone and directly stretched out his hand to grab it and threw it under the bed.
The phone was smashed and naturally wouldn't ring again... But if you think that's the end of it, then you're greatly mistaken. Because Wei Shao's home still has a landline, so...
"For crying out loud, can't you let me sleep?! Who the hell's phone is ringing in the middle of the night, summoning my soul?!" Wei Shao woke up groggily, the curtains tightly closed, and instinctively felt that it was still the middle of the night.
There's anger in his heart, but as long as he doesn't get up, the landline phone will keep ringing... If he still wants to continue sleeping, the wise choice is to get up and answer the phone first before continuing to lie in bed, otherwise...
He ignored one thing, the people who knew his private phone number were not many to begin with. The landline at home was only known by a handful of people, and you could count them on one hand. However, Wei Ershao didn't think of this at that moment, and he answered the phone in a daze, shirtless and rubbing his eyes, yelling in a hoarse voice: "If you have something to say, spit it out! If not, then get lost!"
According to the usual law, there should be a loud scolding on the other end of the phone, but this time, the other side was silent for a long time...
Wei Er Shao was stunned for several minutes, and his mind finally cleared up a bit. He turned on the pendant lamp to take a look at the electricity meter display. At first, he thought he had misread it, so he rubbed his eyes again, only to find that what he saw was indeed true...
Then.
"Third brother, you... hehe, what's up? I wasn't scolding you just now, I was actually sleeping. Some idiot kept calling my phone and I thought it was that person again...” Wei Lin chuckled, Third Brother was a rare guest, their last contact went back to a year ago.
"Sorry, I'm that reckless good-for-nothing you were talking about." Qin San Ye casually threw out a sentence.
Wei Lin was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say... Just now, it was really Third Brother. Did Third Brother find him because of some urgent military matter?
"Help me find someone!"
"Ah...... which one?" Someone who can make Third Brother go to such great lengths must be quite extraordinary, Wei Ershao perked up and listened intently.
"My wife, your sister-in-law!"
Is sister-in-law gone? Is sister-in-law missing? Or did sister-in-law run away from home?
Wei Ershao felt as if he was possessed by the gossip god, and after yawning, he smiled slyly and asked: "Could it be that you bullied your sister? Third brother, we know you can fight, but women can't withstand a single punch from you, so you understand."
"I didn't abuse her!" Qin Zhenyang's face turned dark.
"Is that a cold violence? That one face of yours, women can't stand it!" Wei Ershao said with pride, not to mention that the kind of men women like are mostly those who can talk and express themselves well, and can make women's hearts flutter with just one sentence. Coincidentally, he was exactly that kind of new era gentle good man.
"No!"
Since nothing is left, Wei Ershao had no choice but to reveal the truth again, "Could it be that Third Brother you..."
"What?"
"Although women all like men to be stronger, but sometimes it's still got to be in moderation, can't overdo it... after all, sister-in-law is so slender, can't compare with third brother's physical strength..."
Qin Zhenyang really didn't want to say another word to the man on the other end of the conversation, but thinking about the matter at hand, he briefly explained the reason and said, "......That's how it is, have your subordinate help investigate the guests staying in all the major hotels and get me the results as soon as possible!"
There was indeed a master hacker under Wei Lin's command who could infiltrate any system no matter how tight the firewall settings were, so now he just needed this...
"Alright, there will be results within two hours. After all, it shouldn't take too much effort to investigate since the sister is only in the northern part of the city."
Qin Zhenyang was also satisfied with the exact time, and took the opportunity to mention another thing: "Also help me investigate Ji Xuewei, this matter I can be sure is not as simple as it seems on the surface! If possible, send the results to my email within two days!"
Wei Lin took the matter on, and was just about to fall asleep again, but found that he couldn't sleep... In his heart, he scolded Third Brother countless times, but since he was already awake, he started doing serious business. First, he had someone start looking for people, second, he had someone begin investigating Ji Xuewei.
Let's not mention San Ge anymore, even he himself is very curious about what kind of woman Ji Xuewei really is. On the surface, she appears to be a gentle and weak woman, this type of woman can easily gain sympathy from society... but if she isn't like that on the surface, it can only be said that her mind must be very deep, otherwise it wouldn't be possible for so many people to believe in her acting skills.
Qin Zhenyang called out to Wei Lin, because the team under Wei Lin's command was bought at a great cost from both domestic and foreign sources, each one being a professional in their respective field, including hackers, detectives, and even some shady characters.
To say three handy men, although they can't be put on the stage, but it's necessary to say that for some tasks, only this type of skilled and resourceful person is needed.
At half past five, Wei Lin received the news that his sister-in-law was staying at the three-star hotel in the south of the city. After all, as long as you have an ID card, you can check into a hotel, and they can find people with just that ID card.
Ji Xiaoli didn't know that her current location had already been targeted by someone, and she was too busy to care about that now because the usually unflappable her had inexplicably come down with a fever.
Ji Xiaoli's physical condition is not bad, with a good foundation, so she hasn't had a cold or fever for almost two years. She has always positioned herself as a female strongman who doesn't get sick... but when she really does get a fever and catch a cold, this feeling really isn't lovable anymore.
People often say that minor illnesses can prevent major ones, but she didn't believe it. However, after being suddenly attacked by a severe cold, she really gained some insight.
No thermometer, but she could feel herself burning all over, even the air coming out of her nose and mouth was scorching hot... like being trapped in a kettle about to boil.
The clothes were soaked by the rain, so they couldn't be worn at this time. Fortunately, there was a bathrobe in the hotel room. She took off her clothes and pants, and wrapped her body with the bathrobe...
Ji Xiaoli was burning with fever, feeling like she was going to die soon, and her mouth kept making uncomfortable cries... Her body was scorching hot as she rolled around on the bed, although she was very sleepy and wanted to sleep, but her eyes remained wide open, unable to fall asleep...
She thought again and lay down for a while... After lying down for a while, she would go buy some antipyretics to take... But her whole body had no strength at all, and she simply didn't want to get out of bed...
She covered her head with a quilt, leaving only her nose exposed to breathe. The more isolated she was from the world, the more she felt like she was being cooked... She opened her eyes and looked pitifully at the ceiling. If Ji Xuewei saw her like this, she would definitely be very pleased. For some reason, she recalled the scene from this morning - on one side was Old Lady Qin's interrogating gaze, Qin Zong's mother's resentful and indignant expression, Qin Zong's questioning and his hesitation...
It's ridiculous, just a play, but it really went on...
Knock knock knock...
She turned around and continued packing her turtle, trying to ignore the annoying knocking sound... It's already late at night, is the housekeeper still cleaning the room?
But someone didn't give her a chance to continue ignoring it, the knocking sound outside the room grew louder.
Ji Xiaoli lifted the quilt, didn't even bother to put on her shoes and walked over to open the door in a huff. As she opened the door and saw who it was, she couldn't help but furrow her brow: "What are you doing here?"
"Why can't it be me!"
Qin Zhenyang hurried over as soon as he received the news, and had already thought it out outside the door. If she was determined not to open the door, he would not force her either.
It's just the third floor of the hotel, and climbing through the window doesn't actually require much effort...
But in fact, it's just overthinking.
Ji Xiaoli saw that it was him and instinctively reached out to close the door, but since the door had already been opened, there was no possibility of closing it again! If she wanted to close it, it would have to be after he came in.
As she watched Qin walk in with a swagger, Ji Xiaoli's anger surged again. She walked to the bedside, grabbed the pillow from the headboard and slammed it at him: "What do you want?"
"I don't care about anything else, I'm here to see my daughter-in-law, is there something wrong with that?"
Ji Xiaoli was about to say that she wasn't, but then thought that they were indeed registered as married, and for a moment was choked speechless. She sighed and said: "You go back first, I want to be alone here for a while."
Quiet down?
Qin Zhenyang's vigilance was immediately raised when he heard the three words, "be quiet". Of course, he couldn't just be quiet! What if being quiet really meant separating, wouldn't that be a loss?
He doesn't want to take this risk! Nor does he dare to!
Then...
"What are you taking off your clothes for?" Ji Xiaoli only felt that the hot air blowing out of her mouth and nose was even hotter, which seemed more like being angered by someone.
Qin Zhenyang seemed to have not heard any questioning, continued to undress, unfastened his belt and took off his pants, was about to get on the bed...
"What are you doing!"
Qin Zhenyang blinked his eyes and said, "Since you want to be quiet, isn't it better for me to accompany you?"
"I want to be alone."
"Two people is no problem... I can guarantee that when you want quiet, I won't speak..." Qin San Ye solemnly raised two fingers.
Ji Xiaoli looked at the man with an expression that seemed impossible to get rid of, it was really frustrating, but she couldn't leave even if she wanted to, as heavy rain poured down outside and she had a high fever...
"Qin Zhenyang, can't we not be like this... You also saw what happened today, if you choose to still be with me, your family probably won't agree..."
Qin Zhenyang furrowed his brow.
He didn't think this was the best time to discuss the issue, as he found his little wife's face seemed a bit redder than usual. "Are you running a fever?"
Isn't it a bit offbeat to change the subject at this time?
Ji Xiaoli really wanted to say no, but her throat was almost smoking, she picked up the white open water on the other side of the bedside table and took a sip before she could breathe smoothly.
Before she came to her senses, a cold and large palm had already been stuck on her forehead. The man's cold and urgent voice sounded in her ear: "How can you get burned like this without saying a word? Come on, let's go to the hospital!"
Even without a thermometer, Qin San could tell that he had at least 39 degrees of fever, and if this dragged on any longer, it wouldn't be good.
Ji Xiao Li was completely lazy and didn't want to move: "I'm not going!"
"No way!"
"Why should I listen to you?"
"What's the big idea?" Qin San Ye was both angry and anxious, but he ended up being amused instead. He picked the person up and pulled them onto his lap, and through the not-so-thick bathrobe, his large palm came crashing down...
"You hit me!" Ji Xiao Li was burning with fever, her whole body was dizzy and uncomfortable, and she felt even more wronged when her buttocks were heavily spanked again.
Qin Zhenyang rubbed his brow, pulled the person into his arms and patted them twice before saying in a soft voice: "If you don't want to get beaten up, then honestly follow me to the hospital!"
