Chapter 1653: Ji Miao committed suicide in prison.

She choked. If only she realized earlier that Ji Miao had the intention of committing suicide, perhaps she would not be receiving her letter here now or even feeling guilty.

As long as Ji Miao was willing to, she could even send her back to her younger sister’s side. Alas, she would never know that now, for before she could say anything about it, the lady had already ended her life and left the mortal world.

“Don’t worry. Maybe it’s for the best.”

Ji Ziming looked at the email He Yun had sent over. There were a few people who had managed to get in contact with her, not to mention speaking. He placed his sights on a man’s name that he had not seen before—Tian Yibo

“What do you mean by that?”

Sitting on the sofa, Pei Ge felt perplexed. Her gaze lightly reflected the glare of the phone’s screen.

“I have a new lead, which I think can point us to the one behind Ji Miao.”

He circled Tian Yibo’s name and sent it to He Yun. Upon receiving the order, the latter immediately started investigating Tian Yibo.

Ji Ziming put down his phone and walked over to her. Stopping before the woman, he looked at her lovingly and worriedly. “I’ve already sent Ji Miao’s younger sister to the hospital. The doctor is an expert. Don’t you trust me?”

“I trust you; I’m just worried about Ji Miao. If time could rewind, I would rather not go to H City to capture her with you.”

Her voice slowly became sorrowful. She wanted to know how Ji Miao’s younger sister had lived all those years without the lady’s care. Now, it seemed that all she wanted to know was no longer important.

“She committed a wrongdoing, so she had to pay for it. Choosing suicide was her choice. No one forced her, nor did anyone threaten her. All those had nothing to do with you or me.”

Ji Ziming rationalized the situation. He did not wish for his woman to live in guilt for Ji Miao. In his world, there was never anyone who did not receive a punishment for committing a sin.

Except for Pei Ge.

Because he loved her and would rather he himself be hurt than for her to be hurt even a little.

“Have someone settle Ji Miao’s funeral arrangements. Don’t let her younger sister know for now,” softly reminded the woman. He nodded as his eyes got filled with heartache for her.

“Do you want to rest a bit?”

He knew that she was kind, strong, and unyielding. Ji Miao’s death must have taken a toll on her. He did not wish for this matter to put a dent in their relations.h.i.+p, nor did he wish for all leads to end upon Ji Miao’s death.

“I’m good. There’s so much work to complete, so let’s start with that first. All these sad things will come to pa.s.s.”

She knew that it was impossible and futile for her to stop anything since Ji Miao was already gone.

Those who left were now free, but the living people still must continue living their lives. Those left behind must still fight for justice. Pei Ge set herself a new target—to find out the one behind all this. No one could stop what she wanted to do. Moreover, she still had Ji Ziming by her side.

At the same time, Old Lady Qu was in the greenhouse of her family’s villa, listening to her close aide report about Ji Miao’s death.

“Madam, Ji Miao… committed suicide in prison.”

Tian Yibo was not this close aide’s real name. As he had gone under the knife, his looks were very common. He had picked up the identification card of the man called Tian Yibo by coincidence a few months ago; hence, he went to visit and talk to Ji Miao using that name.

Ka-chak.

The hands of the elderly woman, who was pruning the spider plant, trembled the moment she heard this and accidentally cut off the most robust leaf of the plant as a result. The plant itself seemed to feel aggrieved.

“Say it again!”

She had yet to receive the remaining portion of the confidential files of Pei Ge’s company, so how could Ji Miao die? She had not allowed her to die.

“Madam, she ended her life inside the prison. Her corpse is now in the mortuary of Ji Ziming’s hospital.”

Her close aide repeated.

He did not believe that the old lady was shocked with the lady’s death. It was more likely that this old woman, who only counted her benefits and gain, was thinking of the remaining data.

Indeed.

“Then, did she tell you where the remaining data is when you went to see her?”

Old Lady Qu’s gaze was cold. Coupled with her apathy, her voice sounded more frigid as though it was coming from above the abyss.

“No. She refused to say anything no matter how hard I asked.”

Ka-chak.

This time, what was cut off was not just a piece of leaf but a lot. With just a cut, more than half of the leaves on the left side of the spider plant were cut off. The spider plant in the flower pot now only had the right side intact.

“Useless piece of sh*t!”

Her shrill voice was cruel and heartless. The elderly woman’s dark eyes seemed scarier than the phantom of the night.

“Do you think it’s been returned to Pei Ge?”

She thought of a possibility, observing her close aide’s face with her sharp eyes.

“I don’t know about that. I didn’t see her having any contact with Pei Ge in the days that we were in contact.”

The close aide purposely covered up for Ji Miao.

He had witnessed Ji Miao saying something into Pei Ge’s ears when he arrived at the railway station in H City, but as he was standing too far away, he did not manage to catch anything. Rather, it was the shock on Pei Ge’s face that gave him a new clue.

“Did she really not? Perhaps you just don’t know at all?”

Old Lady Qu’s voice was sharp. In fact, she knew that this close aide of hers had developed some feelings for Ji Miao that he should not have. It might even be this close aide who had leaked the incident this time.

“Madam, are you suspecting me? I truly didn’t!”

With a thump, the close aide knelt down, thinking that if the old lady started distrusting him, he would likely not end much better than Ji Miao. Moreover, he was still in this old lady’s private territory.
