Chapter 358: Chapter 358 The Truth Behind the Arson Case_1
The man turned to me upon hearing my voice, smiling at me, “You’re back!”
I almost threw myself at him for a hug, but seeing the situation, I retracted my arms. That was awkward.
It wasn’t Ding Yinuo.
It was Ding Xiao.
He was holding some supplements, placing them in the fridge.
“Uh, big brother, why are you buying so much bird’s nest?”
Yet, Ding Xiao’s smile was exceptionally radiant.
“Anuo is coming back!”
“What?”
“Miss Jiang called back, said they are booking the flight tickets. If nothing goes wrong, they should be home by this Wednesday.”
“Really?”
“Yes! Mom also knows, and she bought a lot of supplements, told me to deliver them here. She also asked me to find time to clean up the house, using pomelo leaves to ward off bad luck.”
No wonder I saw so many pomelo leaves on the shoe rack earlier.
I nodded happily,
“Good, good! We need to ward off the bad luck.”
Ding Yinuo is better!
He is coming back!
A ray of light finally shone into my previously cold heart.
The news of Ding Yinuo’s return was indeed joyous.
We all gathered, discussing how to welcome Ding Yinuo back.
I also took time to clean the house thoroughly.
Su Peisheng and other childhood friends of Ding Yinuo, upon hearing of his imminent return, came over every day.
Excitedly discussing the celebration feast for Yinuo’s return.
And at this time, Su Peisheng gave me a shocking piece of news,
“Song Xiaoyun, tomorrow is the day of the Golden Bay arson trial. Do you want to come and watch?”
I hadn’t spoken yet when Wenya answered for me,
“Go, of course go. She must go.”
I nodded,
“Yes, I will go!”
This case was of my highest interest; I was definitely going to go.
No matter what the outcome…
Su Peisheng patted my shoulder, giving me a meaningful look,
“Well… you should be mentally prepared. The case might turn out beyond your expectations.”
At that time, I still didn’t realize the brutality of this case; I thought Su Peisheng was just comforting me as a lawyer usually would in day-to-day life.
I smiled and nodded,
“I’ve been through every terrible thing there is! What’s there to be afraid of.”
I was actually thinking.
I knew all the ins and outs of this case.
Now, going to see the trial was just to witness the final full stop being put on this matter.
The next morning, I also went to the company to get all my work in order.
Then Wenya came to pick me up in her car.
“You’re going too?”
“I’m free today, figured I’d accompany you for a look!”
Wenya had recently gotten a new car, a gift from Su Peisheng, a red BMW.
Wenya really liked this car and was happy to drive it all over the place.
At the red light, Wenya suddenly asked me,
“What do you think, President Ding’s situation, no matter how I think about it, it does not sit right with me!”
“What doesn’t sit right with you?”
“Him! I’m asking you, has President Ding ever called you?” Wenya suddenly inquired.
I thought about it and shook my head.
Because I always assumed he was in a vegetative state, I didn’t notice anything amiss when he didn’t call me.
“What about text messages? WeChat messages, has he sent you any?”
“Of course not!”
“That’s damn strange, if he really recovered, woke up, and is able to speak and move, why hasn’t he called you?”
Wenya’s questioning.
Made me start to seriously consider this question.
