Keep Distance, Mr. CEO!
Chapter 402: Do you think she wanted to kill me?

Chapter 402: Chapter 402: Do you think she wanted to kill me?

Ji Chengzhi was smiling when he talked about this, so he must have been happy for him.

But in reality, if he hadn’t returned to Tokyo, the news of his fake death when it reached home would have brought about more severe punishment for both father and son than just this. It was very possible that Ou Yuze could have been disowned by the Ou family, or perhaps, even killed by the hot-tempered old master.

After all, his father had been a gun enthusiast.

Ou Mucen looked down at the glass of water. These past few days, he had become alarmingly thin due to consecutive injuries, to the extent that when he gripped the glass, he could see his pale, almost transparent fingers through the water.

"Mucen, so what do you plan to do next? I’ve heard... it wasn’t just Ou Yuze who was after your life."

Ji Chengzhi saw him staring blankly at the glass of water in his hand, so he sat on the edge of his bed and asked the question.

He had wanted to ask for a while, especially about that woman named An Ning. In these past few days, after the incident occurred, he had heard Secretary Gao describe the scene and had sent people to search for her in China. But that woman seemed to have vanished without a trace; he had searched for several days without finding any sign of her.

Where exactly had she gone?

And who exactly was she?

Ji Chengzhi was waiting for an answer...

But when this man heard his question, he only took another sip from the glass and lay down, seemingly unwilling to talk anymore. "I’m tired, please leave me alone for now."

Ji Chengzhi’s brows furrowed instantly, "What are you talking about? Mucen, you can’t keep shouldering everything by yourself. You won’t be able to handle it."

What could there be? Nothing but some uncleaned rubbish.

A look of impatience flashed in Ou Mucen’s eyes as he lay down: "Don’t worry about me. I will handle my own affairs. We’ll talk when I get back."

"But you’re in this state now; how will you handle things? According to your condition, you need at least half a month to recover. Mucen, just tell me, what exactly is going on with that woman? And does she have anything to do with the incident where they were after your life?"

"..."

Lying there, the pale-faced man furrowed his brows for a long while, finally saying, "What do you think? Does she have anything to do with it?"

Huh?

Ji Chengzhi was taken aback!

Was he now asking him? He wasn’t the one involved; how would he know?

But then, seeing the man’s fingers holding the cup slightly turning white, Ji Chengzhi paused and changed his mind, "An Ning, based on what I’ve learned about her during the time in the hospital, doesn’t seem like someone who would do such a thing."

"Is that so?"

Ji Chengzhi nodded, "Although she doesn’t seem very likable, she doesn’t appear to be a malicious person either."

It was the truth. The first time he had met the woman named An Ning was when her son had an accident during moving and was sent to the hospital, and this man had hurriedly brought her in. He remembered wanting to get her away from his good friend upon realizing his unusual behavior, but instead, she had sarcastically retorted.

So, he truly wasn’t fond of this woman, but to say she was mentally deranged, he couldn’t lie despite himself. She just didn’t seem like it, no matter how one looked at her. Besides, she had a child, didn’t she?
