Chapter 194 - 194 My Patience Is Limited to Three Days
194 My Patience Is Limited to Three Days
Sang Qianqian suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu.
Back then, on the day she had just confirmed her relationship with Xie Shi’an…
They watched a movie together that night. When they were leaving, she waited for Xie Shi’an by the roadside. All of a sudden, a car just rushed over in front of her.
That day, if Xie Shi’an hadn’t stepped on the accelerator and crashed into that car to make it dodge, Sang Qianqian might have lost her life that day.
Today, this car clearly wanted to hit her, but when it saw Xie Shi’an, it avoided him.
Sang Qianqian’s voice trembled slightly. “Shi’an, I remember that we encountered something like this in Yuecheng.”
Xie Shi’an’s eyes narrowed, his voice very low. “They do look alike, but it should just be a coincidence.”
“At that time, we called the police, but they said it was a fake license plate, so they couldn’t track down the perpetrator.”
Sang Qianqian looked at Xie Shi’an steadily. “If I call the police now, will it be like what happened in Yuecheng back then, where the police can’t find anything at all?”
Xie Shi’an’s gaze was a little deep. He didn’t say anything. Instead, he took out his phone and called the police.
The results of the police investigation were just as Sang Qianqian had predicted. The car with the fake license plate arrived at an underground parking lot, and the person inside disappeared.
There was nothing to be found.
Sang Qianqian felt uneasy the entire day.
The first possibility that came to her mind was related to the Xie family.
Could it be that the Xie family wanted to harm her because she was in contact with Xie Shi’an?
However, this thought didn’t seem to stand up to scrutiny.
Xie Shi’an had once said that when he was in Yuecheng, it was Ruan Cheng who forced him to return to the capital.
The Xie family probably couldn’t wait for Xie Shi’an to not come back.
And now, Xie Shi’an had already given up on fighting for the Xie family’s assets and had broken off contact with Ruan Cheng.
The Xie family no longer doubted him. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have allowed him to be a doctor here safely.
An unbelievable thought flashed through Sang Qianqian’s mind. Could it be that Ruan Cheng was behind the two similar car accidents?
Back then, he had used her safety to force Xie Shi’an to leave Yuecheng and return to the capital.
But today, what was the reason?
Was it to make Xie Shi’an save her and make her develop a good impression of him? Or did Ruan Cheng find out something and really had the intention to kill her?
—
The Ruan family.
Xie Shi’an’s expression was extremely cold as he strode into Ruan Cheng’s room.
Ruan Cheng was half-leaning on the bed, holding a bowl of medicine and slowly drinking it. Cui Yi was standing by the bed with his hands down.
Ruan Cheng smiled when he saw Xie Shi’an. “You finally know to come back? I thought you’d never step into the Ruan family again.”
Xie Shi’an’s eyes were hazy as he said sternly, “Ruan Cheng, what are you trying to do? She didn’t get in your way, so why do you have to go against her?”
Ruan Cheng took a sip of the medicine and said, “I’m not the one who’s against her. Shi’an, she’s the one who’s against me.”
He glanced at Cui Xu, who immediately understood. “Young Master An, please wait a moment.”
Cui Xu went out quickly. After a while, he came back with a computer. He turned it on and played a video.
The person in the video was Sang Qianqian, and the background was a hotel room.
Xie Shi’an recognized it at a glance. This was the scene from that night when Sang Qianqian came to his room to look for him and wanted to chat with him.
Xie Shi’an’s expression suddenly changed. “You asked someone to monitor me?”
Ruan Cheng raised his hand and pointed at the watch on his wrist. “I didn’t deliberately monitor you. It’s just that your watch happened to capture this scene. I forgot to tell you that I’ve installed a pinhole camera on the watch your sister left you.”
Xie Shi’an’s expression changed. He was furious. “So you know everything I’ve said and done all these years? Who I’ve been with? You knew everything? Ruan Cheng, what’s the difference between this and spying on me?”
Ruan Cheng narrowed his eyes. “Shi’an,” he said slowly, “You should know that I’m just being responsible for you and your sister.”
“I’m a person, not a thing. I’m not a tool for you to repay your guilt toward my sister!”
The anger in Xie Shi’an’s eyes was indescribable. It was like a volcano on the verge of erupting. The surging flames were about to destroy everything in an instant.
His eyes were bloodshot as he roared, “Ruan Cheng, can’t you respect my privacy a little and treat me like a normal person?!”
Ruan Cheng was clearly unhappy and frowned. “You came here today just to tell me this? Are you still going to watch the video?”
Xie Shi’an’s entire body trembled with anger. In the end, he forced himself to control his emotions. He glared at him fiercely, turned his head, and continued to watch the video on the computer.
The pinhole camera on the watch clearly recorded Sang Qianqian’s voice and actions.
She took out a small syringe and a small tube of medicine from her bag, and quickly and skillfully injected the medicine into the needle.
Her voice was strangely gentle. “Shi’an, don’t open your eyes first.”
However, the needle of the syringe in her hand pierced into the skin of Xie Shi’an’s wrist.
Later, she started to ask Xie Shi’an questions.
“Shi’an, did you really just go to Shen Hanyu’s wedding to give me a gift?”
“Then what were you planning to do by attending the wedding?”
“Were you the one who arranged for the murderer to be killed?”
“Do you know the person who arranged for the murderer to be killed? Or, are you a middleman or an accomplice?”
—
At the end of the scene, Xie Shi’an clearly stated Ruan Cheng’s name and the reason why Ruan Cheng did what he did.
Moreover, Sang Qianqian had even used her phone to record Xie Shi’an’s words the entire time.
Xie Shi’an’s face seemed to have lost all color in an instant, looking a little pale and miserable.
That night, he was aware that Sang Qianqian’s actions were a little strange. He was a doctor, so he was especially sensitive to injections.
He later discovered the needle mark on his skin, but he didn’t ask anything. Instead, he pretended not to know and acted as if nothing had happened.
However, Ruan Cheng had torn the truth apart and revealed it to him.
Although he had some vague speculations in his heart, Xie Shi’an still felt an indescribable suffocating pain when he saw the scene that day with his own eyes.
“I’ll give you three days to get Sang Qianqian to destroy the original video. Don’t try to use it to cause trouble.”
Ruan Cheng had already finished his medicine and was wiping his hands slowly with a hot towel. There was a chill between his brows. “Otherwise, even if she’s the person you like, I won’t show any mercy.”
He raised his eyes and glanced at Xie Shi’an. His voice was cold and indifferent. “Remember, Shi’an, my patience is limited to three days.”

After Sang Qianqian got off work, she did not go home. Instead, she went straight to the company to look for her brother.
Sang Minglang was not in the office. He had a meeting with a guest.
It was unknown whether the guests were more important or the matters to be discussed were more important, but the reception room’s door was closed and several bodyguards were guarding outside, not allowing anyone to approach.
Sang Qianqian found a place to sit down and waited for her brother to come out.
In the guest room, Sang Minglang was flipping through the materials in his hands, his expression extremely ugly.
In front of him, there were more than ten people sitting in a dark mass. Each one of them had a serious expression, and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.
