Chapter 174 Your Great-Aunt Tan Zheng received a call from an American hospital at three in the morning. After listening to the caregiver's description and Chang Li's diagnosis, the man's brow furrowed and did not relax for a long time. He now realized that Xi Jinjiang had been silently paying attention to Song Ni. This time, Xi Jinjiang's illness had recurred with unprecedented severity. He had thought that he had improved a lot in the past two months, and had not expected the relapse to be so bad. Tan Zheng booked a flight to America overnight, not even having time to say goodbye to Song Ni. The CEO's unplanned departure caused a great headache for the assistants on both sides. Not only did they have to coordinate the day's schedule, but they were also extremely busy because they didn't know when Tan Zheng would return. When Song Ni found out, it was already evening. Leaving without notice and rushing to America overnight, the only reason Song Ni could think of was Xi Jinjiang. Song Ni called Lu Fang, and the other side answered quickly. Lu Fang was in a good mood because the Nan Cheng Film City project had finally progressed. He subconsciously thought that Song Ni had helped by saying a word. "Sister-in-law, why are you calling me? By the way, thank you for the matter in Nan Cheng." Song Ni was stunned. She did not deny it directly but adopted a more serious attitude than ever before. "Mr. Lu, let's make a deal." Lu Fang's smile faded slightly, and then he became cautious. He knew that Tan Ge's time was running out. "You don't want to? I have the latest news about Sister Liang Qian." Lu Fang: ...... "...Sister-in-law, what do you want to ask?" "It's simple. I heard before that Xi Jinjiang was planning to get married, but it was put off due to an accident. I want to know information and contact details of his fiancée." Hearing this, Lu Fang subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm not very familiar with Xi Jinjiang. His fiancée left him after his accident. She doesn't seem to be in Xingcheng either, but I can help you find his parents' information." "That's fine too. I'll trouble you." "It's nothing, sister-in-law, she... what's wrong?" Song Ni blinked. "Sister Liang Qian, she seems to have caught a cold." Lu Fang: ...... "A cold? Is it serious?" "Not serious." Lu Fang: Damn it, I've been tricked, I'm so angry. "But..." Song Ni chuckled. "It seems someone is sending warmth to Sister Liang Qian, and it's a man." Lu Fang: ...... "Who is it?" "I don't know. Mr. Lu, give it your all. I'm still waiting to be sisters-in-law with Sister Liang Qian." Lu Fang: He suspected he was being mocked by Song Ni, and he had evidence. ...... Lu Fang was very efficient. Within two hours, he had sent all the information to Song Ni. It included not only the basic information of Xi Jinjiang's parents but also Xi Jinjiang's growth records, and even the number of times Xi Jinjiang had disciplinary violations in high school was clear. When Song Ni received the information, she was drinking at a bar with Qin Yang. After a busy month, Qin Yang finally had a vacation and flew to Yicheng to give Song Ni a belated birthday. "Nini, are you still investigating what happened back then?" Song Ni glanced at the information briefly and put down her phone. "Yeah, Yang Yang, do you remember the last time Tan Zheng competed with the kids from his club?" "Of course." How could she forget? As a fan of Tan Shen, seeing Tan Shen race again was indescribable in her heart. "I remember too, Yang Yang, I can't forget." She couldn't forget Tan Zheng's ease on the race track, his high-spiritedness, his absolute control, and even more so, the light in his eyes when he was racing. A person like him was born for racing, born to display his charm on the track. Song Ni didn't say much, but Qin Yang understood her meaning. Just as spring cannot be without willows, summer cannot be without cicadas, autumn cannot be without falling leaves, and winter cannot be without snow, the race track cannot and should not be without Tan Zheng. "Why don't you go look for Xi Jinjiang's former fiancée? If you want to ask about racing, his fiancée would know more than his parents." Song Ni shook her head. "Lu Fang said his fiancée left Xingcheng after his accident, and besides, I'm not asking about racing." "Then what do you want to ask?" Song Ni shook her head again. "I don't know." She didn't know what she could do, but she suddenly thought of Xi Jinjiang's five years of treatment abroad, and Tan Zheng would definitely take good care of his parents. "Perhaps, I'll go and see them when I have time." Qin Yang sighed. "Nini, do you think Tan Shen will return to the track?" Song Ni's expression paused for a moment, and she also sighed. "I don't know." She regretted it very much now. She regretted not liking racing with Qin Yang in high school, not becoming a fan of Tan Zheng with Qin Yang. Now every time she watched videos of Tan Zheng's past races, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Five years ago, Tan Zheng was only twenty-four years old, and he could have reached greater heights. Her meticulous investigation into Xi Jinjiang's affairs had now deviated from her original plan. At first, she just wanted to know why Tan Zheng retired, and now, after trying to understand the reason, she wanted to help Tan Zheng resolve his inner demons. A more greedy thought was to get Tan Zheng to return to the track. Because of this topic, their moods became considerably somber. They had intended to drink and have fun, but it now seemed to have turned into drowning their sorrows with alcohol. It wasn't until the sound of breaking glass echoed through the bar, followed by a group of women's exclamations and screams, that the somber atmosphere was broken. They looked over and saw a middle-aged man with a pig-like face, a beer belly, and hands on his hips, cursing. "You bitch, I told you to drink, but you're pretending to be pure and not drinking? I'll beat you to death!" With that, the middle-aged man kicked the woman on the ground. Because of the onlookers, Song Ni couldn't see the woman's appearance, but the kick looked powerful. The sighs of the onlookers couldn't drown out the woman's pained cries. Qin Yang suddenly stood up, her brows furrowed. "Holy shit, it's the 21st century, how can there still be such scum in China?" With that, she was about to rush forward. Song Ni's brow furrowed, and she stood up, reaching out to pull Qin Yang back. "Yang Yang, stay behind me." The bar was crowded and full of eyes. The middle-aged man had many people by his side, and it was inevitable that she might get hurt. Qin Yang was not stupid. Knowing her disadvantage, she still rushed forward. With Song Ni there, she was happy to cling to her. However... "Nini, you're different from before. If you get photographed..." Before she could finish, Song Ni had already stepped forward. Just as the middle-aged man was about to smash the woman's head with a wine bottle, Song Ni kicked the bottle away. "Trash should stay in the trash can, don't come out and dirty everyone's eyes." The middle-aged man looked at the woman who suddenly appeared and was stunned for a moment, then his face turned fierce. "Who the hell are you?" Song Ni's eyes turned cold, and she looked at the man sharply and displeased. "Your great-aunt." (End of this chapter)
