With an hour plus of head start, they could be anywhere now.
It would be a while until they receive any news about them. Sun Cuimei was not dumb, she would not come to Jindo City. The only thing to do now was to have Zhou Weiqi's men keep an eye around in Jin City, in case Sun Cuimei were to return after the commotion had died down.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yao's mind was full of questions. Why would a selfish woman like Sun Cuimei suddenly decide to bring Ge Wenwen along with her?
That man would never marry Sun Cuimei, let alone care for her daughter.
Anyway, the people in question were nowhere to be found. Jiang Yao knew that all efforts to figure out Sun Cuimei's motives were futile.
The dinner was left on the table when she ran out of the room. It was now cold and looked unappetizing. Having lost her appetite, she tossed them into the trash can and washed the dishes. It was almost eight o'clock, time for Jiang Yao to wipe Lu Xingzhi clean. She also needed a shower as she smelled of medicine from the operation earlier.
The ward was wonderful, having en-suite facilities. She had Zhou Weiqi deliver a heating rod over, now she could heat the water up for bathing.
The hospital provided the family members of patients with an extra bed in case they wanted to stay the night. Jiang Yao had been sleeping on it the past few nights.
After the water had been heated, Jiang Yao had it mixed with cold water to a pleasant temperature and prepared cloth to wipe down Lu Xingzhi.
It was only a few days ago that he underwent surgery. Jiang Yao was not able to give him a thorough wipe down given his frail state.
