Chapter 667: Suspecting an Insider
Hearing this, Song Yinyin suddenly understood:"Doesn’t that mean someone poisoned President Shi Mai’er a few hours before the banquet started?!"
"Yes." Lu Jihan affirmed with his gaze, "At that time, President Shi Mai’er was still at the hotel where the S Country delegation was staying."
"So, they had no choice but to admit my innocence and let us go?"
"That’s right." Lu Jihan nodded again.
Song Yinyin pondered for a moment and suddenly thought of something:
"If President Shi Mai’er was poisoned in the hotel, could it be... one of their own from S Country who did it? After all, they have their own bodyguards, and the person who poisoned him still had a chance to get close to President Shi Mai’er. If it’s not one of their own from S Country, it’s probably impossible, right?"
Lu Jihan was taken aback by her words and turned his head back in surprise.
Two seconds later, he reached out and gently held her small hand, a faint smile forming at the corner of his lips: "As expected of my wife, your thoughts are just like mine."
Song Yinyin’s eyes lit up.
"Are you saying that you suspect, like I do, that there’s a mole in the S Country team?"
"Exactly." He grinned and nodded affirmatively.
"Then what are you waiting for? Quickly call President Shi Mai’er! Or better yet, let’s go directly to see President Shi Mai’er and tell him about this!"
As Song Yinyin spoke, she eagerly stood up, trying to lift the quilt to get out of bed.
But she forgot that her knee was still injured, and the movement pulled at the wound on her knee.
Suddenly, a sharp pain hit her, and her eyes filled with tears from the pain.
"Take it easy!" Lu Jihan hurriedly supported her to sit back down.
"Look at you, why are you in such a hurry!" He lightly scolded, immediately checking the injury on her knee.
He saw that faint blood had seeped through the bandage, soaking it, and Lu Jihan frowned deeply.
He looked up and softly reprimanded, "See? You pulled your wound. Sit still, and I’ll call a nurse to re-bandage it for you."
Song Yinyin was anxious to find President Shi Mai’er, "But..."
However, Lu Jihan firmly pressed her back onto the bed and said, "If we can think of it, don’t you think President Shi Mai’er already has?"
"..." Song Yinyin was speechless.
That’s true.
Seeing her silence, Lu Jihan then gently said, "Rest assured, Ji Tingfeng, as the chief officer of this foreign military escort, will thoroughly investigate every detail until the culprit is found."
With his reassurance, Song Yinyin felt much more at ease.
Soon, the nurse arrived.
When the nurse removed the bandage from Song Yinyin’s leg, she found that the skin had stuck to the bandage. Removing it pulled at the skin, causing Song Yinyin to grit her teeth in pain.
Lu Jihan was distressed and couldn’t help but softly warn the nurse, "Be gentle! Don’t hurt her!"
The nurse, instead of being annoyed, smiled.
This was the first time she had seen a husband so anxious about his wife’s knee injury, as if he wanted to tear down the whole hospital.
The nurse stifled her laughter but softened her movements considerably, quickly re-bandaging Song Yinyin’s wound.
"All done. Be careful from now on, avoid pulling on the wound, and be cautious not to get it wet. Otherwise, such fair skin will end up scarred."
After speaking, the nurse gave Lu Jihan and Song Yinyin a meaningful smile.
Song Yinyin’s face involuntarily grew warm, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Once the nurse left, Lu Jihan quickly grabbed her small hands again, urgently asking, "Does it feel better now? Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn’t hurt, it’s much better." Song Yinyin replied with a mix of laughter and tears.
He really was making a fuss over nothing.
