Chapter 924 Xia Wan is not Xia Wan
Lin Zhiyi looked at Mrs. Jia with some surprise.
Somewhat puzzled, he asked, "You mean the wives' circle? Has Xia Wan ever been married?"
Mrs. Jia looked at the photo and said truthfully, "If my friend remembers the person correctly, she was indeed married, but..."
"But what?"
"Her husband died a year ago," Mrs. Jia explained.
died?
Lin Zhiyi paused. Could it be related to her husband's death?
Before she could say her thoughts, Mrs. Jia sighed.
"Her husband is already this old, who knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident?"
"what?"
Lin Zhiyi didn't understand what was going on.
Mrs. Jia coughed lightly and said, "Her husband is already eighty years old. Do you think I am right?"
"Eighty? That must be wrong." Lin Zhiyi shook his head.
The Xia Wan she had met was definitely not this kind of woman.
"Third Madam, don't worry. My friend has a photo. See if it looks like him."
Five minutes later, Mrs. Jia's friend sent a photo.
Lin Zhiyi leaned over to take a look and was stunned for a moment.
Aside from the eyes, there is no trace of Xia Wan in the person in the photo.
There's no way to tell if it's the same person.
but……
"Third Master, take a look, does it look familiar?"
Gong Chen took the phone, looked at it carefully, and slowly said a name.
"Shirley."
"Yes, but Shirley is too thin, so we have to observe carefully. It's not true to say that they are connected based on this alone. After all, there are too many people who look alike." Lin Zhiyi said helplessly.
"But at least it's a good start." Gong Chen turned to look at the Jia couple, "Can you two tell me about the situation?"
Mrs. Jia nodded and said, "I'm not familiar with her. We just chatted a few words when we got together for afternoon tea and played mahjong. My impression of her is that she doesn't like to talk much and is very quiet. My friend is more familiar with her. She said that the reason she married this husband was because he had been supporting her studies. You know..."
Lin Zhiyi didn't understand and stared at Mrs. Jia for a long time.
Mrs. Jia explained, "It's true that there are financial aids, and there are many kind-hearted people, but some people are just pretending to be so. Have you ever seen a student who is financially supported only by pretty girls? This woman is one of them. My friend said she is the most successful one."
"Why?" Lin Zhiyi asked.
"The final fate of others was just to take the money and leave, but she married into a wealthy family. I heard that she also helped her husband with many work matters. After her husband passed away suddenly, she did not fight for the family property. She took her own share and there was no news about her since then." Mrs. Jia said.
"Then is there nothing unusual about her getting along with you guys?" Lin Zhiyi asked.
Mrs. Jia shook her head. "She is not in the same circle as us. We only bring her out to play for the sake of her husband. But think about it. She is in her twenties and follows a man in his seventies or eighties. Everyone knows what she is thinking."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi looked at the photos on his phone.
Xia Wan is obviously very talented now, so why should she rely on an old man?
Is there any misunderstanding?
Mr. Jia suddenly spoke up, "I remember that her husband's surname was Sun. He was a playboy when he was young, and he was not content even when he was old. When people mention him, many people laugh and avoid talking about him. After hearing what you said, I remember some things. Mrs. Sun took over several business talks on behalf of her sick husband. She was quite capable, but after Mr. Sun passed away, there was no news about her. Come to think of it, in addition to the children born to the previous wife, there was also an illegitimate child outside. How could the family accommodate her?"
Gong Chen asked, "How did Mr. Sun die?"
"He died suddenly in the middle of the night. After all, he was old," said Mr. Jia.
Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi.
Lin Zhiyi also had doubts in her heart, and felt that the whole thing was tinged with conspiracy.
Gong Chen seemed to be casually asking: "Who is the head of the Sun family now?"
Mr. Jia understood immediately.
"Mr. Sun's son is the son of his second wife. If you are free, we can have a meal together."
"Thank you for your trouble." Gong Chen said.
Mrs. Jia also took the initiative to say: "I have some friendship with the wives of their family. We have an appointment to play cards tomorrow. Third Madam, come with me to take a look."
Lin Zhiyi nodded: "Thank you, Mrs. Jia."
"Then let's just go shopping today and don't think too much." Mrs. Jia picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and handed it to Lin Zhiyi.
"it is good."
After lunch, Gong Chen and Mr. Jia still had to deal with work matters.
Lin Zhiyi followed Mrs. Jia around for a walk.
The local customs and habits here are quite different from those in Beijing. The people are also very warm and speak directly, just like Mrs. Jia.
Mrs. Jia saw that Lin Zhiyi was always applying hand cream and knew that she was not adapting to the climate here.
So she took Lin Zhiyi to her friend's beauty salon.
It was Mrs. Jia’s friend who came and did the facial.
"Miss, your skin is so nice, it feels so soft to the touch." said Mrs. Jia's friend.
"Don't joke, my friend is thin-skinned." Mrs. Jia joked.
The woman smiled, stretched out her hand and said, "Hello, Miss Lin, my last name is Feng."
"Boss Feng."
"You're welcome. Come and lie down. I'll give you a facial." Boss Feng said with a smile.
Lin Zhiyi and Mrs. Jia were lying on the bed, doing facials while chatting with Boss Feng.
Mrs. Jia glanced at Lin Zhiyi and suddenly spoke.
"I remember that the one from the Sun family also did facials with us before? Why haven't we seen her recently?"
"Who knows? Maybe the plastic surgery went wrong." said Boss Feng.
"You're talking nonsense again." Mrs. Jia laughed.
"How could that be possible? You showed me the photos at noon, and I was curious, so I asked around. I heard that she had consulted about plastic surgery, but there were too many projects. Who would dare to do all of them for her within half a year?" Boss Feng explained.
"She's only in her twenties. Is it necessary for her to do so many projects?"
"Isn't it? She is pretty, but she insisted on having plastic surgery to look different. But I heard from my doctor friend that she seemed very anxious, and it might have something to do with the Sun family."
"What happened next?" Lin Zhiyi couldn't help but ask.
"Later... no doctor in Lancheng would dare to do this to her. Either she would fail and be too scared to see anyone, or she would go abroad for surgery. Foreigners are very cruel when they operate on her."
Boss Feng is in this business, so he knows it very well.
Lin Zhiyi calculated that the timing could match Xia Wan's.
But why did she suddenly want to have plastic surgery?
Still need to figure it out.
Boss Feng said, "Mrs. Jia and I have only spoken to her a few times. If we want to know her well, it must be those who often drink tea and play mahjong with her. She is not easy to please ordinary people."
Hearing this, Xia Wan must have something else on her mind.
Mrs. Jia said, "Let's get together tomorrow. You can call those people along."
"it is good."
Hearing this, Lin Zhiyi looked at Mrs. Jia with gratitude.
But in my heart I was full of curiosity about Xia Wan.
Is she related to Shirley?
