Chapter 665: Chapter 665 Is all this true? (1)_1
Chi Yao was sound asleep, while Ai Jiang quietly reached out to grab his cellphone and slipped out of the bedroom.
She found an empty place, unlocked Chi Yao’s phone and then found Q’s number.
She dialed Q’s number on her phone first, but the response she received was "The number you have dialed is not in service".
Was the number encrypted?
Ai Jiang pondered for a moment then dialed Q’s number again using Chi Yao’s phone.
The call connected and was quickly answered. A gender ambiguous robotic voice said: "Mr. Chi, what can I do for you?"
"I... I’m not Mr. Chi, I’m Ai Jiang..." Ai Jiang replied, not waiting for Q to respond before hastily adding, "I know it’s presumptuous of me to call you. But, I promise I’ve found a good solution to permanently deal with Xia Wan’an from this world."
Q: "As far as I know, aren’t you Mr. Chi’s little mistress? If you’ve got such a good plan, why not tell Mr. Chi directly, why involve me?"
"Because Mr. Chi won’t approve!" Ai Jiang was very nervous. She knew that Chi Yao and Q had a close working relationship. It was highly likely that Q would inform Chi Yao about this call. If that happened, she knew Chi Yao would retaliate viciously. But she was gambling on the fact that Q prioritized results and profit and would ignore everything else, including emotions.
Breathing deeply, Ai Jiang finally said, "My plan involves trading one life for another... and the person to replace Xia Wan’an is... Chi Mu! Even if Mr. Chi despises Xia Wan’an, he would never use his own daughter as a pawn. But Q, you’re different from him. You only want results... And besides, Chi Mu is now in a mental institution, a useless pawn for you. If this discarded piece can be put to use, would you reject it, Q?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the line; no one spoke up.
With her palm sweating due to nervousness, Ai Jiang decided to say one more thing: "All I need from you is one favor - to get Chi Mu out of the mental institution. That’s all. You don’t have to do anything else. Even if things were to get exposed, you could cleanly remove yourself from the situation without damaging your relationship with Mr. Chi..."
The other end of the line was still silent. Just when Ai Jiang thought her persuasion had failed, a gender-neutral voice uttered a single word: "Okay."
After hanging up, Ai Jiang erased the call record and quietly returned to the bedroom. She put Chi Yao’s phone back where it was. Lying back on the bed, she closed her eyes, as if she had never left.
...
The outskirts of the city were especially quiet at dawn. But within a mental institution located at the southernmost part, it was unusually noisy.
Some were laughing foolishly, others were repeatedly hitting their heads against the wall, and some were picking insects off their bodies and stuffing them into their mouths... Looking at her surroundings, Chi Mu broke down once again.
She wanted to leave this place, to escape this endlessly dark place.
She had been locked away in this place for many days. Although she wasn’t insane, the staff here insisted that she was. Whenever her behavior became too intense, they would inject her with a sedative. She was often bullied by others here. She couldn’t bear much more of it. If she didn’t escape this hellhole soon, she feared she’d be driven mad even though she wasn’t actually insane!
