Chapter 938: Chapter 938: Ou Chunhua Suffers a Setback (6)
"Since that day I left, we haven’t spoken again."
That night, they were supposed to have dinner together, but in reality, they didn’t really talk. Except for when he stopped her from eating that plate of fruit. It was only later, upon learning that the fruit might have been poisoned, that it became clear he cared about her.
Gu Nuan didn’t know whether she should be happy or sarcastically smile.
This man, who resembled Gu Sheng, what did he truly mean to her? Even she couldn’t tell anymore.
"I heard, from Professor Tang, that since Professor Tang couldn’t return to the hospital, you stayed there on his behalf to handle his affairs."
"Yes, there were some patients."
Gu Nuan heard the pause on the other end, sensing he had more to say, so she listened intently.
"Here’s the thing. Last time, Professor Tang and I might have mentioned this, but I’m not sure if he told you. It’s possible someone gave him a neural poison."
"Mhm."
"After I came back, I looked into it again. Since someone had already poisoned him, and I saw from the records of the dispensing department that the dosage was enough to knock him out, if he wasn’t abducted midway, then someone must have switched the medication or redesigned the dosage."
This was something Gu Nuan was indeed unaware of.
"You mean there might be someone else inside the hospital, collaborating with him?"
"We can’t rule out that possibility. Of course, I think you know him better than anyone else, so perhaps you can better determine if that’s the case."
According to the information provided by Chairman Hong earlier, he successfully abducted Grandma Xiao, and it was because Grandma Xiao’s ambulance reached the nursing home that everything went smoothly. Originally, her husband was supposed to arrive at the nursing home with Grandma Xiao, which was part of Xiao Jianming’s plan.
This means Chairman Hong and his people didn’t abduct anyone midway.
If her husband wasn’t taken midway, then as the information from Ou Yanan now suggests, he likely tried to escape by himself only to find another person had trapped him again.
This person must be someone her husband knows—that is—an internal conspirator!
"Did you—have you noticed something?" Gu Nuan changing her tone abruptly, asked anxiously, "Where are you now?"
Just by listening, one could tell how worried she was about him. Ou Yanan, on the other side, spoke with a hoarse voice, maybe even a bitter smile, "Don’t worry, I’m not at Mingxin, I don’t dare call you from inside."
"He’s my husband; actually, you don’t need to—"
You don’t need to involve yourself in a life-threatening situation for someone unrelated to you.
But, to you, he’s an extremely important man, so it’s impossible to ignore. Ou Yanan couldn’t help but think this, at this moment, he seemed to finally understand his true feelings.
"I’ll investigate this matter myself, please, Dr. Ou, don’t get involved anymore," Gu Nuan cautioned seriously.
Ou Yanan seemed to sigh softly, "Then, can I ask you another thing?"
"What is it?" Gu Nuan seemed to respond without any guard.
Ou Yanan hesitated a bit about this, saying, "Did you know about my mom?"
Gu Nuan squinted slightly, "I’ve met Mrs. Ou before, but we are not familiar."
"Alright then, what I mean is, my mom suddenly experienced an unusual large loss on her investment accounts."
A few days ago, due to fluctuations in the exchange rate, a stock market in a certain location plummeted. The Ou Group is listed there, and its stock followed the downward trend of the market. Subsequently, some people sold off shares, exacerbating the decline of the Ou Group’s stock. However, the sellers probably didn’t expect that the market, along with the exchange rate, quickly stabilized and rose after two days. The Ou Group’s stock rose with it.
