After Getting Abandoned, I Choose to Become the General’s Wife - Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Visit Nie Jun

After Fang Ya talked to Wang Xu, she decided to observe Han Qiao for a period of time.

As per Fang Ya’s request, Han Qiao still went to the mall to work every day but stayed at home obediently at night.

Logically speaking, such behavior should be exemplary.

However, Fang Ya soon found something wrong.

One night, Fang Ya was worried about Shao Xiang, so she had a phone call. After hanging up, Fang Ya decided to take a walk around the courtyard.

She happened to notice Han Qiao walking out of her room.

There was nothing strange about that. What was strange was that after Han Qiao walked out, she walked straight towards the main gate.

She did not leave the compound but opened the gate slightly.

Because it was quite dark outside, Fang Ya could not see what Han Qiao was doing. She only vaguely saw that someone outside handing something over to Han Qiao.

Fang Ya watched as Han Qiao quickly stuffed the thing into her pocket and then closed the courtyard door. She looked around and then returned to her room as if nothing had happened.

Fang Ya frowned, but she knew that it was still too soon to judge.

Early the next morning, Fang Ya and Wang Xu went out together to the shop to check on the situation.

On the way, Fang Ya asked about what had happened the night before.

Wang Xu did not know anything about it. She only said that she had a tiring day and went to bed early at night, so she had slept like a log.

Fang Ya knew that Wang Xu was not lying, so she did not press on.

She called He Feng and briefly told him about the matter.

He Feng advised Fang Ya not to act rashly. Perhaps Han Qiao would be the key to solving the case.

Fang Ya was distracted all day when she was looking after the shop.

He Kun was very proactive. He reported the current progress of the renovation to Fang Ya and also brought Fang Ya and Wang Xu to see the situation of some of the surrounding shops.

Ever since Wang Xu had proposed the idea of second-hand houses, she had been very interested in the surrounding environment and shops.

The three of them walked around the street for a while before heading back.

When they reached the shop, Fang Ya suddenly thought of something. “Little Xu, I’m going to the hospital later. Can you go back by yourself?”

Wang Xu was stunned. “Sister Ya, are you not feeling well?”

Fang Ya quickly shook her head and explained, “I’m going to see the old leader.”

Wang Xu nodded in understanding. “Okay! I got it! I’ll take a bus myself!”

Fang Ya smiled gratefully at Wang Xu. The three of them continued surveying the nearby streets.

When it was close to noon, Fang Ya brought the hot porridge and side dishes that she bought from outside to the hospital.

It had been more than half a month since Fang Ya’s last visit.

Because Fang Ya was still under investigation, it was not suitable for her to visit Nie Jun every day, considering their work relationship.

Fang Ya had suddenly thought of coming over because she recalled that Nie Jun was once an old leader of the city’s criminal police unit. He had a plethora of solved cases under his belt.

Fang Ya came to the door of Nie Jun’s room and was not surprised to see Xiao Yao.

It seemed that ever since Fang Ya stopped coming to the hospital, Xiao Yao became the one taking care of Nie Jun every day.

Xiao Yao was a little surprised to see Fang Ya. “Sister-in-law, why are you here?”

Fang Ya smiled at Xiao Yao. “I happened to pass by today and brought some food over for the secretary. How is he doing?”

“He’s been grumbling for the past two days about not being discharged from the hospital!” Xiao Yao shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly.

Fang Ya looked over Xiao Yao’s shoulder and poked her head into the ward before asking, “Has he recovered?”

Xiao Yao shook his head. “The Doctor said he could be doing far better, but he doesn’t know what’s hindering his recovery.”

Fang Ya frowned. “A doctor can’t tell?”

Xiao Yao nodded and said, “I change the medicine every day, but he’s healing very slowly.”

“Why don’t we go to another hospital to take a look?” Fang Ya was a little confused and suggested.

Xiao Yao thought for a moment, but shook his head. “This hospital is already the central hospital in our city. Do we have a better option?”

Fang Ya frowned slightly, but no ideas came to mind.

She knew that a doctor was excellent, but he was not in this town.

Fang Ya knew that that doctor became a famous doctor in the country and even in the world, but he was also a doctor in a secluded and little-known clinic at the moment.

It did not make sense to send such an important official to a small clinic.

Fang Ya gritted her teeth and kept her thoughts to herself.

It was better to discuss this matter with He Feng later.

Xiao Yao quickly pushed the door open for Fang Ya and called out softly, “Leader, sister-in-law is here!”

Fang Ya followed Xiao Yao’ into the ward.

Looking at the depressed Nie Jun lying on the hospital bed, Fang Ya saw that he seemed to have lost a lot of weight compared to before.

“Secretary, I’m here to see you.” Fang Ya smiled at Nie Jun and raised the bags in her hand.

Nie Jun saw Fang Ya and looked pleasantly surprised. “Why are you here? I thought I wouldn’t be seeing you for a while!”

Fang Ya smiled and said, “I happened to pass by today and came to see you!”

Nie Jun nodded and said with a smile, “How thoughtful of you!”
