He had wanted to say that Ning Anlan was alright, and that he had alerted so many elders, but the meaning behind his words was that he had hardened his heart.
"What do you mean! "You …" Second Master Gu's face was dark, and his tone was low by several degrees. However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the ancient city.
"Second Uncle, An Lan has a concussion and needs some rest." The ancient city had a cold expression on its face, obviously speaking up for Ning Anlan. Although Second Master Gu was unhappy, since the ancient city had said so, Second Master Gu could not continue to speak.
"Hua Rong, let's go outside to get some fresh air." While the atmosphere was tense, Wan Xiuran, who was behind Gu Hua Rong, spoke, breaking the eerie atmosphere. Gu Hua Rong looked at Ning An Lan lying on the bed, and at the ancient city that was tightly protecting Ning An Lan, and nodded.
Old Man Gu saw that the Second Master Gu had left without a word. Then, he looked at the people in the room and left as well. After all, it was not good for the patient to cause such a ruckus.
"An Lan, take good care of yourself. You don't have to worry about the company for now. I'll keep an eye on them for you." Ning Bo adjusted his tie and looked at Ning Anlan's slightly tired face. He knew that it was time for them to leave.
Xu Peilan was still a little reluctant. Ning Bo had already said that, so she didn't know how to refuse. She just nodded and silently followed behind him.
"Elder sister …" Young Master Gu, you should rest well, we'll be leaving first. " Fu Yi wanted to call Ancient City Big Brother, but when she thought about how the Ancient City had already said that, she didn't have the face to call Ancient City Big Brother.
"Wait, don't call me Young Master Gu. Since you're called Big Sister An Lan, then call me Brother-in-law." The ancient city told Fu Yiyi to call him brother-in-law, so they might as well call him Young Master Gu. Fu Yiyi clenched her teeth. The ancient city's words basically destroyed all possibilities of Fu Yiyi and the ancient city with a single sentence.
"Brother-in-law …" Although Fu Yiyi was unwilling, she could only grit her teeth and swallow her anger. She called out to her brother-in-law in a low voice, feeling even more jealous of Ning Anlan.
After bidding farewell, Ning Bo brought Xu Peilan and his entourage and left. Ning Anlan heaved a sigh of relief. Her head felt really uncomfortable. She had been dealing with them just now, so she immediately relaxed. She felt very tired.
"Why are they here?" Ning Anlan frowned. She obviously didn't do anything, nor did she tell them why she came all of a sudden.
The ancient city sat on a chair next to the sickbed, her injured arm exposed in front of Ning Anlan's eyes. Ning Anlan suddenly realized that it was the ancient city's arm that was wounded that was holding her, and a complicated feeling arose in her heart.
"I didn't tell them, but someone posted the news about our accident online, so they found out." The eyes of the ancient city darkened. They didn't want others to see their car accident. Even entering the hospital was a secret. Besides the culprit, no one would leak it out.
When the news came out, it immediately caused a huge reaction in the society. Two of the heirs to the four noble families were in a car accident, so they were naturally closely watched.
Normally, when this kind of thing happened, it would be done in secret, because if this kind of news was released, it would cause a huge disturbance.
Moreover, this was definitely not a simple car accident. If it was a normal car accident, then the perpetrator would definitely not announce it loudly and definitely swallow this matter. Then who was it that found a car to crash into them and even released this news?
"I know." Ning Anlan didn't say anything else, but he already had a plan in mind.
No matter who this person was after, Ning Anlan wanted to know who he was and how he was going to make things difficult for them.
Time passed quickly and in the blink of an eye, a few days had passed. Ning Anlan had a slight concussion, but he would be fine after a few days of observation. These few days, Ning Bo had looked at the company for a few days, but there was nothing special about it.
The ancient city had also come to see Ning Anlan after he left that day. However, it only came once, and then it never came again. Ning Anlan didn't mind, but he was always woken up when he was dreaming at night.
Ning Anlan felt that if he continued staying in this hospital, he would really be driven mad by the smell of disinfectant.
Ning Anlan had been investigating the incident with the car accident, but there were no surveillance footage of it. It was a really strenuous search.
After a few days, there was still no news of him. Ning Anlan returned to work and received a call from Ancient City.
In the coffee shop downstairs of the Ning Corporation, Ning Anlan sat opposite the ancient city and elegantly sipped her coffee. However, drinking coffee wasn't her final goal today; she came here because the ancient city told her that he had found out the identities of those people last time.
The one that was shocked wasn't that the ancient city found out the identities of those people so quickly, but rather that the ancient city also thought that that person purposely bumped into them from the start. She didn't expect that she really guessed correctly.
"Take a look." The ancient city tossed Ning Anlan a stack of photos. Ning Anlan looked at them and saw an unfamiliar man on top. Ning Anlan had no impression of him.
A few minutes later, Ning Anlan opened his eyes wide and finally saw a familiar car. He frowned as he looked at the shabby looking car. It was this car that the man had used to crash into their car.
"It's him? "Who ordered him?" Ning Anlan looked at him again, then shifted his gaze away. This person isn't important to him, the most important thing is the person who bribed him.
"Fu Yaqin." The ancient city glanced at Ning Anlan, and its eyes were full of meaning. While Ning Anlan was still confused, he heard the ancient city say this name.
Ning Anlan snorted coldly. It really was Fu Yaqin.
She wondered if it might be her, but there was no evidence.
"How did you find out?" Ning Anlan couldn't help sighing at the ancient city's methods. She hadn't found any news of them after searching for so long, but the fact that they found them in the ancient city really made her sad.
"I remembered his license number." The ancient city sounded indifferent, but Ning Anlan was very surprised. The ancient city actually first reacted to look at the license plate of that car, he really wasn't a normal person.
Ning Anlan rubbed his nose. No matter what, the reason Fu Yaoqin came this time was because of her. To the ancient city, this was an unexpected calamity. Ning Anlan felt rather embarrassed.
"About that, Fu Yaoqin is targeting me. I've implicated you." Ning Anlan's tone was sincere. She wasn't someone who didn't dare to accept the responsibility, but rather her own pot. She would admit it.
"Hmm, it's good that you know this. There's also one more thing, but there's actually no direct evidence to prove that that person was found by Fu Yaoqin. So, if you confront her face to face, you still won't have a chance of winning."
Ning Anlan nodded. It didn't matter if she didn't have the evidence. She had a plan in her heart, but she would take it back in the future anyway.
