Facing Jiang He’s domineering attitude, Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang also felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the two of them had a subtle look in their eyes, Jiang He’s anger from the news just now instantly calmed down.

She forced a smile. “Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Wang, I was too angry just now, so my tone was a little bad. I apologize to you. It’s just that what you just said is too important to me. Please tell me the ins and outs of the matter.”

Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang looked at each other.

Since Jiang He had already said so, wouldn’t they be unreasonable if they continued to hide it?

“Mrs. Ji, what we just said might not be true. It’s just that ‘The Return of the Crimson Child’ has this plot twist, so we discussed it a little.”

As Mrs. Wang spoke, she first emphasized that this had nothing to do with her before recounting the plot of “The Return of the Crimson Child” regarding Xu Yu’s swap.

As Mrs. Wang spoke, Jiang He’s expression turned even uglier.

After all, as the person involved, she knew how “real” “The Return of the Crimson Child” was! This plot twist might also be true!

After hearing Mrs. Wang’s words, Jiang He no longer had the mood to stay where she was. She only wanted to verify if this matter was true.

She used the last of her rationality to suppress herself so that she did not look like she had lost her composure. After saying goodbye to Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang, she left first.

After walking out of the banquet hall, Jiang He’s expression turned completely cold, and her footsteps became hurried.

Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang, who were left behind, immediately restrained their awkward expressions and looked at Jiang He’s back with a meaningful look.

The two of them looked at each other, then turned around and walked towards the other noblewomen.

Jiang He returned home and temporarily calmed down.

The so-called truth of how Gu Xiao was exchanged was only the plot twist of a television drama. Even if the previous plot twists were true, it did not mean that the plot twist this time was true.

Even if she brought this matter to Ji Gao, he might just deny it.

She had to find evidence… Yes, the most important thing was to find evidence!

Jiang He’s eyes darkened. Then, she took out her phone and made a call. After giving a few instructions, she immediately hung up.

She sat on the sofa dejectedly. When the butler saw this, he carefully walked forward.

“Madam, do you need to eat now?”

Originally, Jiang He was going to attend a banquet, so she shouldn’t be back so soon. She came back so early, so she might have come back hungry.

Although Jiang He seemed to be in a bad mood, as the butler, he could only brace himself and go forward to ask.

Jiang He waved her hand weakly. “No need. I’ll sit for a while and go upstairs.”

Hearing this, the butler could not say anything else and quietly left. He took most of the servants away, leaving only one behind in case of emergencies.

Jiang He sat quietly on the sofa and closed her eyes.

If it was really as Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Wang had said, then she…

Jiang He opened her eyes and suppressed the surging thoughts in her heart.

She got up and walked to the bedroom upstairs.

The people Jiang He had arranged to investigate the truth were pretty good. In addition, with Chu An’s help in secret, he found the ins and outs of the matter the next afternoon and sent it to Jiang He’s phone, one by one.

She looked at the video sent by the investigator and suddenly gripped her phone tightly. Her well-maintained hands looked abnormally pale at this moment.

Jiang He watched the video over and over again a few times before calling the person investigating.

“Are you sure that what you investigated is true?” Jiang He felt that her throat was a little tight, and she could not even speak clearly.

“Mrs. Ji, you know our methods too. If we’re not sure if it’s true, we wouldn’t dare to send it to our employer! Don’t worry, be it the video or what happened, we’ve investigated the authenticity. There’s nothing fake!”

With the confirmation from the investigator, Jiang He felt her head buzz and could no longer hear anything else. She only felt that the voice sounding in her ears had become a random, noisy blur.

When she came back to her senses, she had already hung up at some point..
