Upstairs.
Shi Hanchu followed Su Manman's instructions and went upstairs to Jiang Mingzhu's cloakroom. There were a few pairs of black boots scattered on the shoe rack. Shi Hanchu removed the insoles one by one …
Sure enough, he took out Jiang Mingzhu's music scores that were folded under the insoles!
It was Jiang Yishi's manuscript. There were also Jiang Yishi's scribbles, corrections, notes, and annotations on it.
After Shi Hanchu took all the music scores, he looked at Jiang Mingzhu's huge cloakroom. It was filled with Jiang Mingzhu's clothes and shoes. Almost all of them were new, and she had only worn them once …
Only the most eye-catching pair of white sneakers looked like they had been used.
He walked over and picked up Jiang Mingzhu's sneakers, and his eyes turned moist.
He had bought this pair of sneakers for Jiang Mingzhu when he was in Milan with her …
Jiang Mingzhu, who loved beauty, wore high heels to visit Milan with Shi Hanchu. Her feet couldn't stand it, so Shi Hanchu casually entered a specialty store and sold her a pair of sneakers.
At that time, Jiang Mingzhu complained that the sneakers were ugly.
Unexpectedly … Jiang Mingzhu wore them often.
They had obviously been washed, and even one side of the heel was a little worn. However, Jiang Mingzhu hadn't thrown them away …
Shi Hanchu took the pair of shoes and sat down on the sofa in the cloakroom. The past between him and Jiang Mingzhu was so clear in his mind …
But for some reason, in Shi Hanchu's memory, Jiang Mingzhu's face became blurry.
He tried hard to think, trying hard to see Jiang Mingzhu clearly. He wanted to push aside the layer of fog that blocked Jiang Mingzhu's vision, but what he saw … was Su Manman's face.
Shi Hanchu was shocked that something like this had happened while he was sober.
He gripped the pair of sneakers tightly in his hand, let out a long breath, and put them back.
He took the manuscript that he had reopened and flattened out as he walked downstairs.
Hearing footsteps, Meng Yuqiao stood up nervously and looked upstairs.
Seeing Shi Hanchu holding some papers in his hand and tidying them up as he went downstairs, Meng Yuqiao's heart leaped to her throat.
Was that … Jiang Yishi's manuscript?
She had searched Su Manman's room, but she couldn't find it. Where did Shi Hanchu find it?
According to Su Manman's request, Shi Hanchu had to let Meng Yuqiao see that he was holding a song score, so he didn't hide it. He held the uneven script and went downstairs.
He smiled at Ye Qianqian and said, "Aunt Xin, I've found what I wanted. I have to rush back to the set today, so I can't accompany you. I'll come over another day."
Knowing that Shi Hanchu was busy, Ye Qinghan didn't force him to stay. She nodded. "Be careful on the road."
Meng Yuqiao stood not far from Shi Hanchu, her eyes fixed on the manuscript in Shi Hanchu's hands. When she saw that it was a song score, her heart almost jumped out of her throat.
It was indeed Jiang Yishi's manuscript!
She and Du Lingyang had tried so hard to find what they had been looking for, but Shi Hanchu had easily found it …
After all, Shi Hanchu was Jiang Mingzhu's true friend, so it wasn't strange that he could find him!
However, why did Shi Hanchu suddenly come to get the manuscript at this time?
After watching Shi Hanchu leave, Meng Yuqiao could no longer stay in the Su residence.
She excused herself by saying that she had something to do and Ye Qianqian didn't stop her.
…
Shi Hanchu had just come out of the Su residence and unlocked his car. He hadn't had the time to open the car door.
Su Manman appeared out of nowhere and snatched the manuscript from Shi Hanchu's hands.
Shi Hanchu saw that it was Su Manman, who was wearing a cap, and frowned. "Why are you here?"
Su Manman smiled and flipped through the manuscript one by one. After confirming that Shi Hanchu had brought the manuscript out, she smiled and waved the manuscript in her hand. "I asked you to help me get this. Of course, I'm here to get the manuscript!"
Seeing Su Manman smiling and looking down at the manuscript, Shi Hanchu asked her, "What do you plan to do?"
From the corner of her eye, Su Manman saw Meng Yuqiao coming out of the Su residence. She smiled and waved the manuscript in her hand at Shi Hanchu. "I'll take the manuscript first. If there's anything else I need your help with, I'll definitely tell you …"
Su Manman then waved the manuscript at Shi Hanchu, pushed it to her car, opened the car door, and left …
Meng Yuqiao's face turned pale.
Shi Hanchu … was actually in cahoots with Su Manman!
Shi Hanchu seemed to have sensed that someone was looking at him and turned around. Meng Yuqiao hurriedly hid behind the door.
Shi Hanchu frowned and got into the car to leave …
Meng Yuqiao held back her heartbeat and hurriedly called Du Lingyang.
Du Lingyang was still feeling uneasy because of what had happened on set this morning!
Seeing that it was Meng Yuqiao's call, Du Lingyang felt a little frustrated and answered the call.
"Su Manman took Jiang Yishi's manuscript!" Meng Yuqiao said as she walked to her car.
"What?" Du Lingyang's scalp went numb. "How could Su Manman take the manuscript? Ye Qinghan suspects you? When did Su Manman become so familiar with Ye Qinghan that Ye Qinghan would let her take the manuscript? "
"Today, Shi Hanchu came to the Su family and said that he wanted to take something from Jiang Mingzhu. Ye Qinghan agreed! When Shi Hanchu came downstairs, I saw him holding Jiang Yishi's manuscript in his hand! I hurriedly followed him out … and saw Shi Hanchu giving the manuscript to Su Manman! "
Meng Yuqiao got into the car and closed the door before adding, "I tried my best, but things didn't go as I wished!"
Thinking of how Shi Hanchu had defended Su Manman on set today, Du Lingyang kicked the coffee table over …
"They're indeed in cahoots!" Du Lingyang's hands were trembling.
Shi Hanchu and Su Manman wanted to join forces to kill him!
"What do you mean? You know they're in cahoots? "Meng Yuqiao asked," Then what should we do now? Su Manman has already taken the manuscript. It's not that I didn't fulfill my promise to you, but my remaining payment … "
Du Lingyang grabbed his hair. "Look at the situation now, and you're only worried about your remaining payment! If anything happens to me, who's going to give you your remaining payment? "
"Then I'm already at my wit's end! What do you think I should do? Anyway … we agreed that I won't do anything illegal! "Meng Yuqiao said.
Du Lingyang hung up on Meng Yuqiao, not knowing what to do …
He tugged at his hair and paced back and forth in a panic, trying to think of a solution.
Since Jiang Yishi's manuscript was in Su Manman's hands, he could just snatch it from her!
Otherwise, Su Manman knew too much, had a long tongue, and was always spouting nonsense …
What should he do if the police really came looking for him?
Since Su Manman liked to meddle in other people's business so much, then … let her go to hell and find Jiang Mingzhu to meddle in other people's business!
Du Lingyang raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot, so red that it was terrifying. It was as if he had already gone berserk.
