Chapter 2277: Strike First
“You were the one who sent those messages to Tina, weren’t you? You were also the one who informed the Xue family, right? If it weren’t for you, my brother wouldn’t have died! Do you know what I want to do now? I want to strangle you to death!”
An Jichuan suddenly turned around and grabbed her neck, staring at her coldly.
Shen Ranran pushed his hand away and said, “No… It’s not me… Ji Chuan…”
An Jichuan pinched her until she could not breathe. Her face was red from holding her breath. When she could not breathe properly, he threw her to the ground.
“Cough, cough, cough…” Shen Ranran’s neck was in pain. She had felt the breath of death just now.
An Jichuan was enveloped by Xiao Su’s murderous aura like a demon from hell. “You should take responsibility for everything you’ve done!”
“Ji Chuan, I really don’t know what you’re talking about. What message? I’ve never sent any messages! Also, I wasn’t the one who informed the Xue family. Although I know about it, I won’t do anything to hurt your brother. You’d better investigate it thoroughly first!”
Shen Ranran pretended to be innocent.
“You can deny it! You better not let me find out it’s you! Otherwise, I won’t let you off!”
After An Jichuan warned her coldly, he walked past Shen Ranran and left the cemetery.
He would investigate further because the warning had confirmed that his brother’s heart failure was not a normal death. The autopsy report had found a type of poison.
This also meant that someone had secretly harmed An Xianming. Otherwise, he might not have suddenly died from exhaustion.
As she watched the familiar figure disappear, Shen Ranran lay limp in front of the tombstone. She looked up at the man’s face on the tombstone and suddenly felt a little guilty.
A gust of cold wind blew and she couldn’t help but shiver. Feeling guilty, she quickly got up and ran.
She would not let An Jichuan find out anything. If he insisted on not letting it go, then sorry, she had to make the first move to protect herself.
After An Jichuan took over the An Group, some negative public opinion against him gradually surfaced.
There were rumors that An Jichuan had deliberately caused An Xianming’s car accident in order to obtain the An Group’s inheritance. He even vividly described the conflict and power struggle between the An brothers.
An Jichuan did not want Xue Yating to misunderstand him.
He knew that he had done something wrong when it came to handling relationships, but what was wrong with loving someone?
Xue Yating also saw the news. She said that she did not want to believe it, but her heart was affected.
She met An Jichuan at the An family mansion. He wanted to say something to her, but she only glared at him hatefully, scolded him as a “murderer,” and left.
An Jichuan felt wronged. He had always been on good terms with his big brother, and it was not as the outside world had said.
The only contradiction was that he had wanted to confess to Xue Yating at that time, and his brother had stopped him. It made him feel very upset.
But he had never thought of harming his brother.
He did not know how to redeem his image in Xue Yating’s heart. He was afraid that it would be very difficult to do so. Some hatred would be hard to get rid of once it took root in his heart.
Ever since Xue Yating moved back to the old mansion, An Jichuan had been living in Shui-mo Lan Ting Residence. The two had not seen each other since the last time they met.
If not for what happened next, he might not have had the chance to meet Xue Yating for a while.
